A 22-year-old pregnant woman in Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh, died after a doctor allegedly performed surgery on her while under the influence of alcohol, a police official told PTI on Friday.

Police have registered a case against two doctors in connection with the incident. The woman had given birth to a baby boy, who is reported to be undergoing treatment at a hospital.
