Patients with multiple pregnancies, preterm labor, rupture of membranes, intrauterine fetal death, polyhydramnios, placenta previa, PIH, and GDM were excluded. All the included participants were randomly divided into two equal groups, i.e., Group-B (transcervical Foley’s catheter) & Group-A (vaginal Dinoprostone), by using the lottery method (randomization process). In both groups, the efficacy was noted.
