A woman in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, succumbed to post-delivery complications, marking another tragic incident in a series of maternal deaths in the region.The incident involves Samu, who underwent a normal delivery at Tinwari Hospital on June 24, 2026, but developed postpartum haemorrhage.

Despite being referred to Umaid Hospital, her condition deteriorated, leading to the removal of her uterus and subsequent transfer to Mahatma Gandhi Hospital.She passed away on July 19, 2026, after her condition worsened.Hospital officials confirmed that she suffered hypovolemic shock due to excessive blood loss, which severely impacted her vital organs.

This death adds to growing concerns over maternal mortality in Rajasthan, where two other women died from similar complications in June and July 2026.Seven women remain in critical condition, with three diagnosed with severe kidney infections.

Authorities have ordered a probe into the incidents, including a case where a woman's condition deteriorated after receiving an incorrect blood transfusion.The situation underscores systemic gaps in maternal healthcare infrastructure and emergency response mechanisms in the state.
