While Nepal is coping with the devastation caused by two major earthquakes and a series of aftershocks, a woman who delivered a baby girl at an Indian Army run field hospital here on Thursday has chosen to name her "Bharti".

Bhawana Sapkota Pudasaini named her "Bharti" for her love and respect for India, the army officials said.

Just as Pudasaini delivered the baby, the entire field hospital celebrated the moment, officials said.

Pudasaini was shifted to Sinamangal Indian Army Field Hospital from Kathmandu Medical college after fresh quakes hit Nepal on May 12.
