In a heart breaking incident, a man was forced to bring his daughter's dead body from hospital by tying it to his car's seat in Rajasthan's Kota. The picture of the father taking his daughter’s dead body tied with the seat belt of his car has gone viral on social media. As per news reports the man was asked to pay Rs 20,000 to Rs 35,000. by ambulance drivers for an 85 km-long journey to Jhalawar.  

The heartbreaking incident happened on Monday. A few days back, 34-year-old Seema was brought to New Medical Hospital in Kota from Jhalawar by her family for Covid-19 treatment.

The hospital was treating her for covid, but she died during the treatment. The family then wanted to take Seema's body to their residence in Jhalawar.

No wardboy was available to take the morgue outside the hospital. Family members then bought the bodies out of the hospital. When Seema's family members asked the ambulances outside the hospital, they demanded Rs 20,000 to Rs 35,000. The family did not have the money to pay that much.

Seema's father then tied the corpse  in the front seat of his car and brought it to his house in Jhalawar. The district collector of the Kota Ujjawal Rathod told the media that we are investing the matter and asked the father to give us the details of the drivers who asked this much of amount.
