As per the reports, the woman was in her advanced stage of labour pain and as the bus managed to rush her to the hospital, doctors and nurses soon realised that it was impossible to shift her into the hospital as her condition was so urgent that it was impossible to move her out of the bus. 

Taking into consideration the emergency, doctors and nurses of Thissur's Amla Hospital promptly decided to perform the delivery of the baby inside the bus. All the bus passengers were removed outside as doctors and nurses entered to perform a delivery inside the KSRTC bus. 

As the bus was evacuated, the clips from the incident that have been surfacing on the internet from outside the hospital where medical staff can be seen rushing inside the bus as the woman was already in her advanced stage of labour pain and moving her would pose a risk. 

Fortunately, the delivery took place swiftly and after the successful delivery in the unusual situation, the woman gave birth to a baby girl who is now shifted into the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of the hospital for routine observation while the woman is recovering under medical supervision as well.

Dr Yasir Sulaiman of the Amla Hospital shared that both mother and child are doing well and the delivery procedure was taken place ensuring the safety of both mother and the newborn child. Dr Sulaiman described it as: "It was a different day and a new thing for us."
