NAGPUR: A man in his early 20s sold his two-month-old daughter to a couple from Umrer through a broker for Rs1.10 lakh, and purchased a new bike, bed, cooler, and speakers. His wife, who was opposed to the sale two months ago, recently mustered courage to complain to the police, and asked them to get the baby back.
However, tragedy continues to plague the baby, as even two months after being rescued by cops, she cannot be reunited with the mother. In the absence of the Child Welfare Committee (CWC), whose tenure has ended but fresh members are yet to be appointed, the baby had to be sent to Government Medical College and Hospital, where police have requested authorities to allow the mother to breastfeed her. No one has an idea when the baby can be handed over to the mother.
