Lakshya, a 5 year old boy from Bangalore is in a state of Coma for the past 9 days. After being admitted at Mallya Hospital for a minor finger surgery, he slipped into coma. Doctors who initially claimed that it would take just 20 minutes to complete the surgery came out 2 hours after admitting him, with a news that he has gone into coma because of weak lungs and heart.
Lakshya injured his finger in school on June 10 and his parents admitted him to Mallya Hospital. After the surgery, the boy went into a coma. The doctors later referred him to Manipal Hospital. Purushottam said that the doctors asked him for ` 60,000 as the surgery had to be done in six hours. While he is fighting for his life, parents are heartbroken as they say that the negligence of the doctors at Mallya Hospital led to this state of the boy.
