THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: 'It's hot and I should be resting now because of the surgery, but I am not willing to retreat accepting defeat'. Harsheena's words are filled with confidence even in the sun in front of the Secretariat. She was speaking to the media during the satyagraha conducted by Harsheena Samara Samiti in front of the Secretariat demanding action on the matter of scissors getting stuck in her stomach during delivery surgery.

'I came here with three small children. I came to the capital because those who were supposed to meet me turned their backs for 86 days. Here, not Harshina's justice, but society's justice should be implemented. The Health Minister cannot take a stand due to outside interference. I have been in pain for five years. No other patient should have this condition. I demand appropriate compensation and action against those responsible for medical malpractice.' She said that the strike will continue in Kozhikode. Meanwhile, Haresheena returned home last night after not being allowed time to meet the Chief Minister. Minister Veena George also did not bother to meet her. MP Rahul Gandhi has written to the Chief Minister demanding justice for Harsheena.
