It is learnt that the mother, who has been taking treatment for mental illness, carried the baby to the railway bridge which is just half a kilometre from the house.

According to the statement given by relatives, the mother and child were missing from 9:00 PM. The relatives were in search of them but the woman returned. When they asked her about the baby she explained the matter. The woman said that the child slipped from her hands due to the vibrations caused by the approaching train on the bridge.
