The century old practice of using bambu sticks to carry patients and old aged is still in existence in the tribal dominating areas in Visakhapatnam district.
Men have carried physically a pregnant woman to hospital as there was no transpiration facility available in the Anuku village of Kotapuratla mandal.
Though locals alerted 108 ambulance, the vehicle did not reach in timely to the village due to lack of Road network. As there was no other option, relatives carried pregnant woman to nearby hospital in mandal head quarter. On coming to know the incident, local MLA Anita initiated measures to lay road network.
