A 10‑year‑old girl died under suspicious circumstances at Harsh Clinic in Indore while being treated for abdominal pain. Her family has accused Dr. Shri Chand Manghecha of improper treatment and negligence, leading to a late‑night protest at the clinic.
Indore, Madhya Pradesh – On a recent night, a ten‑year‑old girl identified as Divyanshi Solanki was brought to Harsh Clinic, located in the Khatiwala Tank area, for treatment of stomach pain. While under medical care, the child’s condition deteriorated and she was declared dead at the facility under circumstances described by relatives as suspicious.
The boy's parents have publicly accused the attending physician, Dr. Shri Chand Manghecha, of administering incorrect treatment and displaying negligence that they say contributed to the fatal outcome. According to the family, the alleged lapses in medical protocol were evident from the rapid decline of the child’s health.
In response, the grieving relatives gathered outside the clinic late at night, creating a disturbance to demand accountability and a thorough investigation. Local police were called to the scene to maintain order and to record statements from the clinic staff and the protestors.
Authorities have not yet released an official statement regarding the cause of death or any potential legal action against the medical personnel. The incident has sparked concerns among residents of Indore about the quality of care in private clinics.
The case remains under preliminary investigation, with the family seeking a forensic post‑mortem report and possible legal recourse against the clinic and the doctor involved.
