Superstition in the name of traditional treatment

People in the Adivali Melghat region still follow traditional practices of home treatment instead of going to the hospital. In such a situation, such incidents occur when treatment is not received at the right time. In such a situation, the officials working here believe that if such cases are to be stopped, then the people here should be made aware of scientific medical treatment.
