‘If I Die’, Author Taslima Nasreen After Botched Surgery At Delhi Hospital

Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen, who is residing in India, has alleged that she has become a victim of botched surgery at a Delhi hospital. 

The author has alleged that she was forced to undergo hip replacement surgery which was not required at all. 

Taking to Twitter, Nasreen wrote, "I was at Apollo for knee pain. Dr Yatinder Kharbanda told me I had hip fracture, but didn't show me X-ray/CT. I was admitted for fixation on January 13 late night, but on Jan 14 morning he forced me to do total hip replacement. Later found no hip fracture & a false discharge summery was made (sic)."

“I was not given any time to think, to consult with friends & family, to get 2nd opinion. I was alone. Dr Kharbanda created panic,said he would do nothing but Total Hip Replacement & OT is ready. So hurry.  He did that without any indication. It is definitely a malpractice (sic),” she mentioned.

“If I die because of the complications of Total Hip Replacement, no one but Dr Kharbanda is responsible. After reaching Apollo hospital with knee pain, he did my THR within a few hrs. It's still a nightmare. He lied to me about Xray & CT findings (sic),” she further added.
