There seems to be no end in sight to the horror of infant deaths in West Bengal. From Malda which recently witnessed the shocking death of 15 babies within 48 hours at a government hospital, the focus has now shifted to Murshidabad. 10 new-borns have died in the last two days in a state-run hospital in Behrampore in the district. This time too, it's the sheer apathy of the administration that has led to the tragedy.
