Minu Bhaisare

A 27-year-old staff nurse at Bombay Hospital & Medical Research Centre

“"She informed the passengers around her only after the pain became unbearable. When I reached her, the amniotic sac had already ruptured and the baby’s head was crowning. There was no possibility of waiting another 15-20 minutes for medical help."”
