A 15-day-old baby was found covered with stones near the Sita Mata Kund Temple in the forests of the Bijolia area of Bhilwara, Rajasthan. According to the police, his mouth was filled with pebbles and his lips had been glued shut when a grazer discovered him.
Head Constable Vijay Singh informed that the child was found in the forest in Bijolia when a man looking after cattle went to the pile of stones and found the child screaming with pain. His mouth was stuffed with stones, and his lips were stuck together with glue. The man called the villagers, who removed the stones from his mouth, and rushed the child to the government hospital in Bijolia.
The Chief Medical Officer of Mahatma Gandhi Hospital, Dr. Arun Gaur, said that the child is stable, and the medical team is closely monitoring him. The child’s body had been heated, and there were signs of injury around his mouth where Feviquick had been applied.
The hospital administration has notified the Bhilwara Child Welfare Committee, and the process of sending the child to a foster home for further care has been initiated.
