NHRC Issues Notice over Infant's Severed Head

A sad event happened at a hospital in Punjab, India.

A news report said a stray dog was seen with an infant's severed head.

The National Human Rights Commission, or NHRC, is now looking into it.

They sent letters to the government and police in Punjab to find out what happened.

The NHRC wants to know if the hospital was doing its job to keep people safe.

The report also mentioned concerns about how clean the hospital is and if there were enough security measures in place.

The hospital superintendent said no baby was reported missing.

The NHRC is trying to figure out if any rules were broken and what can be done to prevent something like this from happening again.
