Auraiya: A deeply distressing video has emerged from the Auraiya district of Uttar Pradesh, casting a shadow on our collective humanity. In this heart-wrenching incident, a young man was compelled to transport his sister’s lifeless body from the hospital on a motorcycle. He secured his sister’s body to his back using a scarf, while a girl seated behind him cradled the deceased. The video footage of this occurrence is truly shocking, prompting a response from the hospital administration. Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak has personally taken notice of the situation and issued directives for appropriate action.
This incident occurred on Kishni Road East in Naveen Basti, Bidhuna Nagar. A 19-year-old named Anjali had lost consciousness due to an electric shock. When her family rushed her to the hospital, doctors tragically declared her deceased. According to the hospital administration, the family of the deceased declined to permit a post-mortem examination.
As a result, they unilaterally decided to take the body with them without informing anyone. Later, it was revealed that they had transported the body on a motorcycle. Nevertheless, in front of the camera, the mother and other relatives of the deceased admitted that their decision to take the body home was voluntary.

Some individuals argue that this reflects negligence on the part of the health department, asserting that the relatives of the deceased should have been provided with an ambulance. The truth of the matter will become clear after a thorough investigation, but the video of the incident has sparked numerous questions.
In the viral video, it depicts a young man carrying his sister’s lifeless body outside the hospital on a motorcycle. He secured the body with a scarf, while a girl sat behind the motorcycle, gently holding the deceased. A crowd of onlookers surrounded them, their expressions reflecting the somber scene. The brother, overcome with grief, rode the motorcycle, his tears flowing.
Regarding this video, the Superintendent of the Community Health Center clarified that no request had been made for an ambulance or similar services. The family members of the deceased voluntarily submitted a written request to forego the post-mortem examination and chose to transport the body themselves. The allegations of ambulance unavailability are entirely unfounded. The deceased’s brother and sister took Anjali home on their motorcycle of their own accord.
20 साल की अंजली को करंट लग गया। फैमिली उसे लेकर सरकारी अस्पताल पहुंची। उसको डॉक्टरों ने मृत घोषित कर दिया। अस्पताल पर कोई एंबुलेंस मौजूद नहीं थी। शव को बाइक पर रखा। दुपट्टे से बांधा और घर ले गए।
