The peace in Hadapsar area is suddenly shattered by a man banging away at a steel plate with a stick and ward boys and nurses running on the street offering ‘congratulations’ and offering local peda sweets to people on the streets.
The commotion was created by the staff of the Medicare Hospital to celebrate the birth of a female child.

Locals are familiar with Medicare Hospital’s revolutionary policy of free delivery for all females born there, propounded by its founder and owner, Dr Ganesh Rakh.
