The woman allegedly committed the act because she wanted a boy

A four-year-old girl's private parts were burned with tongs allegedly by her grandmother in Haryana's Sirsa district. As per initial reports, the incident took place on July 9, but it came to light only on Thursday after she was rescued by members of the District Child Protection Committee. Besides taking the minor to a hospital, members of the child welfare group also alerted the cops. The accused is yet to be arrested.
