Parents Accuse Hostel Management After Child’s Body Discovered

The tragic finding of Prince Singh’s body has ignited a fierce backlash from his family. The boy’s mother, in tears, pleaded for the return of her son, saying, “I sent him home two days ago; I want my child back.”

Villagers gathered in large numbers at the hostel site after the news broke. They demanded answers regarding the delay in informing the parents and the alleged negligence of the hostel staff.

Police have opened a case to investigate several key questions: How did the child end up in the pond? When did the hostel become aware of his disappearance? Why was there a gap of several hours before the family was notified?

The superintendent of the hostel has been placed on suspension while the investigation proceeds, and senior officials from the tribal department have been called in to assist.
