Nagpur: Closing Borders because Covid’s pandemic comes as a blessing disguised for the Pakistani couple.
Without children for almost 20 years since marriage, the couple from the city of Ghotki Sindh Province in Pakistan gave birth to a baby’s reaction tube contained in Nagpur Hospital.
With Pakistani passports released on behalf of the child, now three months old, all three are ready to return home in Ghotki.
Their return plan coincides with the Pakistani authority to relieve the Covid protocol for cross-border trips.
Vijay (name changed) was a Pakistani Hindu, who came to the visit visa to meet his relatives in Nagpur in 2019.
Immediately, the border was closed because of Covid.
When relatives insisted, the couple received fertilization in vitro (IVF) carried out.
IVF is a medical term for baby tube reactions.
“Yes, there is an IVF center in Pakistan too.
We can finish it in the city like Karachi or more.
But we continue to postpone plans and in the end 19 years passed.
I came to India in March 2019.
Meanwhile, my relatives insisted that I could finish IVF is here and also referred the hospital.
Finally, I called and went ahead, “Vijay said.
The family then acquires a long-term visa (LTV) because the visit visa only allows a month to live.
The first IVF effort failed and the pair went for another round and finally succeeded.
“My wife gave birth to a baby boy on May 16 this year.
He is healthy and with all the examinations done, we plan to return to Ghotki.
My father has developed some heart problems and he asked me to return.
When reaching there, we can Decide whether to stay or return, “he said.
“The baby has given new meaning to our lives,” he said.
Dr.
Mayuri Assudani from Indira IVF in Nagpur, who treats the couple, said, “After the first attempt failed, I considered it a personal challenge.
It works for the second time.” “They previously had a plan to return to Pakistan when a five-month pregnant wife.
However, remembering his condition, I prefer them to stay so that monitoring can be done.
The trip can have his own danger.
They agreed and finally the child was sent here, “he said.
This story has issued another aspect of their lives traveling to India from Pakistan.
Rajesh Jhambia, Secretary of Sindh Hindi Panchayat, said, “There are many who come from Sindh for this purpose.
The boy was born in India and some of them returned, but others also continued to live in India.
There are 2-3 similar cases in Nagpur.
