RAIPUR: Four newborns, all aged between 1 and 5 days, died at the government-run Ambikapur Medical College in Surguja, North Chhattisgarh, on Monday morning after a power failure shut down ventilators and the oxygen support system in the Special Newborn Care Unit (SNCU). Hospital authorities, however, denied a power failure happened in the hospital as they call it a power interruption.
The condition of a few other children is said to be critical and all of them are under observation.
