Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: A woman had to beg for money to buy an injection required for her husband's CT scan on Wednesday in the GMCH premises. As soon as this matter came to the notice of the social workers, they rushed to help the woman and brought the required injection.

As per information, Sheikh Salima (Roshangate) is the name of the woman who was asking people for money in the Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) area. She required Rs 1,200 for the injection required for her husband Khalil Sheikh Ibrahim's city scan.

But, due to lack of money, she was wandering in the office of the medical superintendent of the GMCH for the last two days. As she got no help, she started asking people in the GMCH premises. Seeing the condition of the woman, some gave her money. Meanwhile, Kishor Waghmare of the KK group noticed the incident and immediately rushed to help the woman and brought the injection.
