‘Even the expired licence issued to the said hospital allowed for five beds only,’ Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Surendra Choudhary said.
New Delhi: The private neonatal hospital where seven newborns died and five were injured in a blaze was operating despite the expiry of its license. It also did not have qualified doctors and had no clearance from the fire department, police said on Sunday.
“During the investigations, we got to know that the doctors are not qualified/competent to treat the newborn children in need of Neo-Natal Incentive care, as they are BAMS degree holders only,” said the DCP.
