Farrukhabad, Sept 4 (IBNS): Just days after the Gorkhpur tragedy which witnessed child deaths at a hospital, new reports have surfaced stating that 49 babies died in a month at a government hospital in Farrukhabad in Uttar Pradesh,

In a tragic replay of events, even this time, parents have accused that their children died due to lack of oxygen.

During that period, there were over 460 deliveries in the hospital, NDTV reported.

UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's office has initiated a probe into the incident.
