“Appalled to see this video of a mother from Faridabad!” the tweet read. “Heights of carelessness, insensitivity & irresponsibility. She has no right to risk her kid’s life.”
According to a report by an Indian news agency, the child’s mother had tied him to a bedsheet for rescuing her saree that feel on the balcony of a locked apartment.

Majority of parents think they can treat their kid their way. In many developed countries Social services protect rights of children very diligently. In India also we must devise & manifest rights & duties of parents pertinent to their offspring.

The man from the Uttar Pradesh state named Manoj Vishwakarma hanged the class two student Sonu Yadav by his legs in front of his schoolmates.
