Sick child dies in mother's arms after her 3-hour trek for help

An ailing child died in mother's arms after she walked nearly three hours to reach medical help in Domkyrkoh, Meghalaya. Cab drivers refused to enter the village due to extremely poor road conditions, forcing the family to trek 10km on foot. The tragedy sparked outrage over rural healthcare access and questioned the status of a sanctioned ₹25-crore road project.
