In a shocking incident, a 13-year-old student of ninth standard delivered a baby in her school washroom in Hyderabad.
According to NDTV, the girl complained of stomach ache after which she was sent to the washroom by her teacher, along with a classmate. The classmate returned to report that the girl had delivered a baby.
The teen and the baby were moved to a room and her parents were called to school.
The school staff says no one, including 13 women teachers, had noticed that the student had been pregnant.
”She is very slim and would walk with a dupatta on her stomach and she would sit with her bag on her lap, so we didn’t know,” said the girl’s teacher.
The girl’s parents were also reportedly shocked. They said they did not notice anything.
A probe has been ordered into the matter and after preliminary inquiry, police booked a case against a youth who used to accompany the girl to school.
