Bengaluru: In a heart-wrenching incident that underscored the efficiency of Bengaluru’s emergency response system, personnel from the K.G. Halli Police Station rescued a newborn baby found abandoned near a petrol bunk in Lingarajapuram on Sunday morning.
Local residents noticed the infant lying near the Shell Petrol Bunk at around 11:38 am and immediately alerted authorities through the Namma 112 emergency helpline.
Upon receiving the alert, the Namma 112 Command Center promptly dispatched the Hoysala-46 patrol team. ASI N. Nagaraj and HC Gopi, attached to the K.G. Halli Police Station, reached the spot within just seven minutes of the call.
