It states, &#8220;Manisha was admitted to Landmark Hospital after getting a check-up done there on July 16, 2018. After this, her father was asked to arrange Rs 2 lakh. Two days later, Manisha was taken to the operation theatre for surgery. Her father alleged that the doctors did not tell him why she needed surgery when she seemed fine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The reports further adds, &#8220;After the surgery, Manisha was admitted to the ICU. Her family members were not allowed to meet her, and none of them knew how she was doing. On July 22, they were told that Manisha&#8217;s condition was serious and she would have to be referred to Fortis Hospital. She was sent to Fortis in a Landmark Hospital ambulance. The Landmark staff left shortly after dropping her there. After her medical check-up, doctors at Fortis Hospital declared that Manisha had already died. Hearing this, her family went into shock. They did not know what the doctors had done to her that led to her death. Her family then began protesting outside Landmark Hospital and called the police. However, the police did not take any action against the doctors.&#8221; A Dainik Jagran report from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jagran.com\/punjab\/chandigarh-girl-death-after-surgery-family-demanded-65-lakh-rupees-compensation-19397503.html\">July 2019<\/a> stated that the family demanded Rs 65 lakh compensation for their daughter&#8217;s death following the surgery.<\/p>\n<p>Social media claims have therefore misidentified the woman as the Hathras victim.
