A heart-wrenching incident occurred in Bhopal on Wednesday when a two-day-old newborn girl was discovered tied in a yellow sack on a railway track. The infant was promptly taken to the hospital for medical attention after locals reported hearing her cries. Authorities are now investigating the matter and reviewing CCTV footage to uncover more details about the incident.
Residents near the railway track in Bagh Umrao Dulha were alerted by the faint sounds of a newborn. Upon investigating the source, they found a yellow sack abandoned by the side of the track. With quick action, they opened the sack to reveal a tiny girl with an uncut umbilical cord. Some bystanders comforted the baby and kept her warm while others contacted the police.
Upon arrival, the personnel from Aishbag police station, along with Deputy Police Commissioner Priyanka Shukla, quickly took the infant to Kamla Nehru Hospital. Doctors confirmed that she was only one or two days old, and her condition is currently stable.
The police have registered a case and are actively seeking information from nearby hospitals. They are compiling a list of women who have recently given birth in an effort to locate the girl’s parents. DCP Priyanka Shukla noted that the area surrounding the discovery is filled with shanties and slums, where some families may perceive a girl child as a liability.
