HYDERABAD: Responding to an SOS on Twitter on May 22, MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha took up the case of a 23-year-old pregnant woman, Jyothi, who was ailing and facing severe complications as she was nearing her delivery.
Her husband Raju Naik, a cab driver from Kosgi, was finding it tough to make ends meet and had launched a crowd-funding campaign.
Kavitha reached out and saw to it that Jyothi was admitted to a private hospital to ensure her safety and that of her baby in the time of Covid-19.
On Monday, Jyothi delivered a baby boy after surgery. The overwhelmed couple Jyothi and Raju thanked Kavitha profusely. Inspired and filled with gratitude, Raju announced that he will offer free cab rides to pregnant women.
