26 July 2022, Tuesday, Chittorgarh, Rajasthan

She was crying, but they took her crying as kittens‘ meowing. Many hours passed. The crying did not stop. Then, they went upstairs to look into the matter. They were shocked to see a just born baby with her umbilical cord (connecting cord between an unborn baby and mother) there.

Paalonaa received this information while surfing google. According to the local media reports, A just born baby girl was left alone in Gandhinagar of Chittorgarh. On Tuesday, she was found in the middle of junk on the roof of Rajasthan Steels. This shop is located near Anokha Hanuman Mandir in Kotwali Police Station.

She is going through treatment in SNCU at the Government Women and Child Hospital . She is recovering well. The local police is trying to find the truth about the case.

According to reports, the showroom owner, Mr. Mohammad Azhar, had been hearing crying coming from the roof since 12 pm that afternoon. However, he dismissed them as being cats. They were very common in the place. But the crying continued until 4 PM in the evening. Then, he went to the roof. Mr. Shahid Hussain Lohar and Mr. Mohammad Anas also went with him.

Baby found in Junk on Terrace

Here, they found the baby lying among scrap. Her umbilical cord (connecting cord between an unborn baby and mother) was still attached to her. She was badly hurt. They informed the police.

With the help of local youth, they admitted the baby to SNCU of the hospital. According to doctors, she‘s premature (born too early) and underweight (just 1900 g).

It was raining heavily

It was raining heavily since last day. Locals think that surviving of this baby girl is not less than a miracle Kotwali police has started investigation. It has also lodged an FIR under IPC 317. There‘s a whispering that the adjacent (next to the place, where the baby is found) girls hostel might have thrown the baby on the roof. It is unfortunate that the baby was left alone in a cruel way. But, it‘s great that she‘s rescued and now recovering.

What PaaLoNaa Thinks

If police will try to find out the truth about this case very closely, they will certainly be able to crack this case. This baby girl must be from any of nearby buildings. A similar case was happened in Panipat of Haryana last year.

Abandoning a newborn baby in unsafe conditions is a truly awful crime. Parents have option of Safe Surrender. If they are unwilling to raise their children, they can opt Safe Surrender.

What is Safe Surrender

Safe Surrender is a government policy for those children, who are almost at the point of being left alone or killed.. Indian citizens can surrender their child to Child Welfare Committee (CWC) of their district. They will also get 02 month period to rethink about their decision. After the waiting period, the will go to adoption pool.
