Vizianagaram: B. Aparna of Phoolbagh Colony in Vizianagaram and B. Madhuri of Chelluru village were admitted in PVR Hospital at Vizianagaram for delivery. Two days after each gave birth to a female child, both these new mothers are fighting for establishing the identities of their babies in a private hospital. The two women claim that the lab assistant has interchanged the new born babies, and are demanding a DNA test before claiming parenthood for their infants.

It was their respective relatives who had suspected that the infants were changed and they reported it to the concerned doctor named Dr. Sudha. The hospital management found out the mistake after viewing the CC camera footage and advised the parents to exchange the babies of each other. But the parents of the both children did not agree to this suggestion.
Now the case has reached the Collector, Vivek Yadav who directed C. Padmaja, District Medical and Health Officer to solve the issue. The DMHO visited the hospital and got the entire information from both parents and recorded their statements too. Later as per the wish of the parents of the infants, she decided to conduct DNA tests to clarify their doubts.
Later DMHO told The Hans India “We will clarify their doubt by conducting DNA tests on the babies and their parents. It will come within few days and till then the babies would be looked after by the hospital management. The parents of the children are feeding them now” she informed.
