NAGPUR: A 25-year-old man got a new lease of life after a bullet — stuck in his rib cage leading to a fracture and severe wound — was successfully removed in a surgery performed at Wockhardt Hospital in Maharashtra’s Nagpur.
The man, hailing from Madhya Pradesh, was shot by a rival in a property dispute.
An immediate surgery was suggested which was not possible in his hometown.
