The Telangana Government initiated disciplinary action against 13 officials for the death of four women after undergoing Double Puncture Laparoscopy (DPL) at a family planning surgery camp in Rangareddy.

Notably, a mobile team of health officials including two surgeons conducted DPL on 34 women at the female sterilisation camp at Civil Hospital in Ibrahimpatnam. Four of them later complained of acute gastroenteritis and approached private hospitals for treatment.  All four women succumbed while undergoing treatment.

The incident took place in August, when four Telangana women, who went to the State Health Department organised for family planning surgery, died during the operation.  The investigation was started after a complaint registered by the relatives of the four woman, who died due to the negligence of the doctors.  In regard to this, an inquiry committee was also formed to investigate the matter.  In addition, Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao, the Chief Minister of Telangana, ordered a probe and announced Rs. 4 lakh compensation to the victims’ families.

After days of investigation, the inquiry committee submitted a report, based on which, a criminal case has been booked against Joel Sunil Kumar, who performed the DPL at the camp conducted at Ibrahimpatnam.  The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) Government, on the 23rd of September, said, strict action would be taken against the 13 officials including District Medical and Health Officer (DMHO) and District Coordinator of Hospital Service (DCHS) DMHO Swarajya Laxmi and DCHS Jhansi Laxmi.  Furthermore, action has also been taken against DPL camp officer Nagajyothi, deputy civil surgeon Geeta, head nurse Chandrakala, three doctors of primary health centres and three supervisors.

Meanwhile, after the tragic incident, the State Health Department inquiry committee also recommended guidelines for the family planning surgeries, to avoid such deaths in future.
