Bhubaneswar: In what can be termed as very upsetting, a mentally-retarded woman delivered a child on a village road in Ganjam district this morning.

According to reports, the woman delivered a male child on the Chikiti Jakar-Balijhuli main road under the Sanakhemundi area in the district.

Locals have now rushed the mother-child duo the nearby Bamakei Primary Health Centre for post-delivery care. The incident has worried villagers.
