Gadag, Feb 28: The parents of a five-month-old girl have alleged that the baby died after it was administered an injection by the health department staff at Gojanuru in Lakshmeshwar taluk of Gadag district in Karnataka. 

The incident took place on February 25. The baby was given an injection at a health camp in the village by the health staff of Yelavatti primary healthcare centre.
