The doctors at the hospital said that the baby girl is just about a day or two old. Her condition became critical due to the deep cut on her throat that caused bleeding and the cold weather worsened her situation further. Doctors expressed hope that the baby girl’s life would be saved but she would require prolonged treatment.
