A seven-member team of doctors from AIIMS, New Delhi, on Wednesday visited Bilaspur to attend to the victims of a botched sterilisation procedure at a state-run camp which claimed the lives of 11 women and left nearly 69 others ill, some of them critical. "Whatever treatment is being provided to the victims is good," Dr Anjan Trikha, Professor of Anaesthesia at AIIMS, said during a brief interaction with mediapersons after visiting Apollo Hospital here. When asked about the cause behind the deaths, Dr Tirkha said, "The exact cause behind the casualties can only be established after getting complete reports." Dr Neena Malhotra, Dr Sanjeev Sinha, Dr Kapil Dev Soni, Dr M Mahapatra, Dr Sanjay Agrawal and Dr Aarti Kapil were the other AIIMS team members who visited different hospitals here. As many as 69 women suffering from post-operative complications, following the botched sterilisation procedure at a camp in Pendari village of Bilaspur town on Saturday, are admitted in different hospitals here.
