--Girl’s mother returns after three hour to claim her daughter
BHUBANESWAR:
A three-month old baby girl found lying abandoned in waiting hall of Bhubaneswar
railway station on Friday. The Government Railway Police (GRP) took the girl
and handed over to the Childline after waiting around three hour for the girl’s
claimant. Finally, a woman reached and claimed the baby girl as her daughter.
According to the GRP,
the baby girl was lying abandoned in the waiting hall for three hours. The
passengers, who were waiting for the train, in the hall talked about the baby
girl who was lying unattended for hours. Some passengers then informed the GRP
and railway station authority about the matter. The railway station officials
made announcements, but nobody came to claim the baby girl.
“I thought mother of the baby had
gone somewhere and would return, but the baby shouldn’t lye abandoned for
hours. If her mother comes, we would give her the address of Childline from
where she can bring her baby safely,” said IIC of GRP Bhubaneswar Smruti Ranjan
Kar.
The GRP
then handed over the baby to Childline. The Childline member Pratima Satpathy
received the baby and said they would produce her before the Child Welfare
Committee (CWC). What the CWC would take decision that is final, she added.
After three hours, the mother of
the baby Anusuya Panigrahy of Jajpur district reached the GRP
police station and claimed that the baby was her daughter. She had gone to the
toilet of a train, but couldn’t come back as the train left the station when
she came out of the toilet. Later she got down at the next railway station and
came back to the railway station where she left her baby, Anusuya added.
