Data regarding demography, characteristics of delivery of newborn, maternal and fetal morbidity associated with all the deliveries were collected. Result: The frequency of vaginal delivery was found to be 62.16% whereas cesarean section comprised 37.84%. Out of 62.16% vaginal delivery, 4.11% were the cases of instrumental vaginal delivery. Common age group was 20 to 24 years and 93.1% cases were delivered at term.Most common maternal complication was 2nd degree tear (4.95%) , primary PPH (1.41%), paraurethral tear ,cervical tear, shoulder dystocia.2% of the total cases received blood transfusion. 2 cases underwent peripartum hysterectomy. 2 cases of maternal mortality were recorded.
