A newborn child was found abandoned at a graveyard under Fenchuganj in Sylhet on Monday.

Fenchuganj upazila health officer Rashedul Haque told ¶¶Òõ¾«Æ· that a group of people of the Nijghilachhara village in the upazila gathered around the graveyard of the village in the morning after hearing the cry of a newborn baby. 


‘But, none of the villagers approached the baby in fear. A school teacher named Tahmina came forward and picked the baby on her lap with a deep passion, and came to the upazila health complex, he said. 

The health officer said the baby would be one day-old and in a good health. ‘We are providing the baby necessary treatment.’

Fenchuganj upazila social service officer Johnny Ranjan Dev said that they would take the decision about the newborn child.
