The warden questioned the girls and one of them admitted that she gave birth to the baby in the bathroom. The girl had returned from her house only the pervious night. Warden Hemlata immediately informed the parents of the girl. "I was informed about the baby's cries from bathroom side and when we reached there we found the baby. When I asked the girls about it, one of them admitted it," said Hemlata.

She said the principal of the school is on long leave and she has to take care of the girls. "I have informed the matter to the department," said Hemlata.

Meanwhile, district collector Ashok Bhandari said that it was a serious matter. "I instructed the sub divisional officer to remove the warden immediately and inform the assistant director of the social justice and welfare department about the incident," he said. The collector also ordered a police inquiry.

The parents of the girl were called who took away the girl and her baby. The baby was healthy and was carried by the parents of the girl.
