High drama over day-old girl's speaking powers
Dharamshala | Wednesday, Mar 17 2010 IST
 

High drama unfolded here when the rumour of a ''talking infant'', born on the first day of Navratra, spread like a wildfire in this district. The TRP-driven electronic media went in a tizzy over the news yesterday, with lensmen rushing from one village to another to catch the girl child visuals. The news was first received by a print media journalist that such an infant had been delivered in Lanj village early yesterday.

He shared this information with a national news channel reporter and both of them contacted the villagers. Some of whom told them that the girl was born near Ranital on Baroh road. The mediapersons rushed to the locality for the ''breaking news'', but by then the news started trickling that a woman of Bankhandi, married at Lanj, had delivered such miraculous baby in Dehra Civil hospital and a number of mediapersons had joined the hunt. However, when contacted, the Civil Hospital sources claimed ignorance about any such delivery. Soon afer the rumour spread, people scanned channels to have the glimpse of the ''goddess'' on the small screen. However, as the day drew to a close, the hectic search failed to yield any result.
