5-Year-Old Girl Injured by Nylon Manja
A little girl named Tanvi was riding on a motorcycle with her dad after school.
Suddenly, a strong string called nylon manja got wrapped around her face and hurt her badly.
Her dad took her to the hospital right away.
The doctors had to put six stitches on her nose and cheeks.
The police are trying to stop people from selling this dangerous string, but it's still being sold in some places.
This string is used for flying kites, but it can be very harmful if it gets tangled around people or animals.
5-year-old Tanvi Sachin Waghmare suffered severe facial injuries after getting entangled in nylon manja while riding a motorcycle with her father.
The incident occurred around 2:30 PM on Sunday in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (formerly Aurangabad), Maharashtra, India.
Tanvi sustained injuries to her nose and cheeks and required six stitches at a private hospital.
A case has been registered at the Waluj MIDC Police Station, and the Commissioner of Police has directed officials to take stern action against the sale of nylon manja.
Despite the directives, the sale of nylon manja in the Waluj area has not reduced.
