UP: Man who performed self-surgery via techniques learned from YouTube recovering at home
Mathura (UP), Mar 21 (PTI): A 32-year-old man from Uttar Pradesh's Vrindavan, who attempted to cure his recurring stomach pain by performing surgery on himself using techniques learned from YouTube, is now reportedly recovering well at home.
Raja Babu, a resident of Sunrakh village, had cut and stitched his own abdomen on Tuesday using surgical blades, stitch cords, and needles purchased from the market. When his condition worsened on Wednesday, his nephew, Rahul, rushed him to the Vrindavan Joint District Hospital.
"This young man, who tried to operate on his stomach by cutting it on Tuesday, was admitted to the Joint District Hospital of Vrindavan when his condition worsened the next day," confirmed officials.
Dr Shashi Ranjan, an emergency medical officer at the hospital, provided initial treatment and referred Raja Babu to SN Medical College in Agra for further care. However, instead of going to Agra, Raja Babu returned home.
Chief Medical Officer Dr Ajay Verma said on Friday, "The EMO (emergency medical officer) Dr Shashi Ranjan, who was present at the District Joint Hospital at that time, gave him first aid and referred him to Agra, but he did not go there."
Rahul, Raja Babu's nephew, informed that his uncle's condition has improved significantly. When contacted, he said that Raja Babu's condition is better than before.
"Doctors at the hospital informed us that Raja Babu had only cut the upper layer of his abdomen, leaving his internal organs unharmed," said the nephew.
Rahul mentioned that Raja Babu's wound has reportedly healed after dressing, and he is now recovering at home.

Karnataka BJP chief urges Speaker to revoke suspension of 18 MLAs
Bengaluru, Mar 22 (PTI): Karnataka BJP president B Y Vijayendra on Saturday urged Speaker U T Khader to withdraw the suspension order of 18 legislators.
The BJP MLAs were suspended for six months from the Assembly on Friday. They protested against the four per cent reservation bill for Muslims in public contracts, and climbed on the podium where the Speaker was in the seat and threw papers on him.
Addressing reporters at the BJP state office, Jagannath Bhavan, Vijayendra said, "We urge the Speaker to revoke the suspension. We also condemn the decision to suspend BJP legislators, which is entirely illegal, unconstitutional, unilateral, and arbitrary."
The Shikaripura MLA stated that the BJP opposes the government’s decision to grant reservations as "an appeasement to minorities."
"We will fight against this bill both inside and outside the House and take it to a logical conclusion," he said.
Vijayendra also announced the launch of a statewide awareness campaign against the bill, minority appeasement, and what he described as "the humiliation of Hindus."
