Minor Student Gives Birth in Exam Center Restroom in Madhya Pradesh

Pithampur, February 25: A shocking incident occurred in Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh, where a minor girl, a 10th-grade student, gave birth in the restroom of an exam center while attempting her board examination.

The event took place on Tuesday at a private school designated as an examination center by the Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education. The girl was in the middle of her math exam when she suddenly complained of severe abdominal pain. She went to the restroom, where she unexpectedly went into labor and delivered a baby boy.

Concerned staff members and an inspector, noticing her prolonged absence, approached the closed restroom after hearing the sound of a baby crying. The exam center management immediately alerted the 108 emergency ambulance service.

Both the student and her newborn were rushed to the Community Health Center in Pithampur for medical attention. Doctors confirmed that both mother and child are stable and doing well, currently under observation. The girl and her baby were brought to the center around 5 PM, and medical staff reported their condition as normal.

The incident caused panic among students and staff at the center. The police registered a zero FIR at the Pithampur police station and transferred the case to the Betma police jurisdiction in Indore, as the girl resides in Betma and was only at the Pithampur center for her exam.

In a conversation with a news agency, Vijay Dabar, the Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) in Dhar, confirmed the incident and stated that the girl was indeed taking her exam on Tuesday. The zero FIR has been sent to the Betma police station since she is a resident of Indore.

During questioning, the victim revealed that she had been in contact with a boy for the past two years. The accused has been identified, and the police are actively working to apprehend him. Legal action will be taken against the accused under relevant sections, including those pertaining to the protection of minors, and a thorough investigation into all aspects of the case will be conducted.
