BAJURA
A 24-year-old woman in Bajura gave birth to a baby boy inside a roadside cave after going into active labour while being carried to a health facility. A health worker later reached the site, provided post-delivery care and ensured the mother and newborn were stable.
The incident highlights the continued challenges pregnant women face in accessing maternal healthcare in Nepal's remote mountain districts during the monsoon. The incident is the latest in a series of childbirths taking place outside health facilities in Bajura during the monsoon.
