Patna: Hundreds of villagers have flocked to a remote Bihar village to catch a glimpse of a baby girl who was saved by stray dogs after she was abandoned in a mound of mud by her mother, officials said yesterday.
Villagers found the infant covered in mud after they were alerted by three dogs that raised the alarm.
"The barking of the dogs drew loud wails from the infant that attracted the attention of the villagers," Ram Narayan Sahani, a senior government official, said yesterday from Samastipur district. "The girl is crying but is safe in the lap of a childless couple who have adopted her," he said.
Police said they were looking for the girl's mother.
