Mumbai:
The BMC continued to face wrath on the third day after a two-year-old infant was stolen from civic-run VN Desai hospital in Vile Parle on Friday.
On Monday, a delegation from Mumbai Mahila Agadhi led by Shaina NC, a BJP national executive member, accused the civic body of negligence and met additional municipal commissioner Ashish Kumar Singh to submit a document comprising seven pointers to augment the security in all civic hospitals.
"The BMC should address the issue urgently and nab the gang involved," said Shaina NC. "It should work in tandem with the police to deal with the problem holistically."
An infant was stolen from Sion hospital in 2009, and incidents of babies getting swapped were reported from Sion and Nair hospitals in 2007 and 2010.
The BMCdenied there were any no loopholes. "It is a case of negligence on behalf of the parents, and not a security lapse," said Singh.
