Two months after CRPF jawan Ratan Thakur was killed in the 14 February Pulwama attack, his wife Rajnanadini Devi gave birth to their son on 6 April.
On 10 April, the three-day old infant’s health condition turned critical and he was rushed to a hospital in Ranchi, reported The Hindustan Times.
The senior paediatrician of the private Rani Children's hospital, Dr Rakesh Kumar, relayed that on account of a premature birth, the infant had a host of complications like intraventricular haemorrhage or bleeding in the fluid-filled areas of the brain, and hydrocephalus or fluid in the brain.
The hospital’s administrator, Mukul Ghosh, said that their board decided to waive half of the hospital bill.
