A pregnant woman in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur city was allegedly asked to leave by the hospital staff in the middle of the night, following which she gave birth to a boy in an e-rickshaw, police said.

Munawar, who was in labour, was admitted to the district women's hospital on the night of August 14, but she was later asked to leave without being examined, SP Saharanpur (Rural) Vidya Sagar Mishra said yesterday.

A case was lodged in Janapuri police station. The matter is being probed, he added.
