Doctors said that she died due to delay in admitting the girl to the hospital and as a result her condition deteriorated.

But irate kin of the deceased manhandled and threatened a junior doctor P Ravi Kumar who was on duty. Kin of the girl also lodged a complaint with police against the RIMS Institution and duty doctors.
