Koppal girl reunited with family through WhatsApp alert
KOPPAL: An 11-year-old girl from Hosalli village in Koppal district, who went missing on May 5, was safely reunited with her family after 24 days, thanks to the coordination of Child Protection Cell officials through a WhatsApp group.
The child with mental disabilities had unknowingly boarded a Mysuru-bound bus from Hosalli bus stand with her grandmother. As they waited, the grandmother dozed off, and during that time, the girl wandered into a bus and sat down. The driver and conductor assumed she was travelling with someone and did not raise an alarm.
