Madikeri, June 18: A four-and-half year-old girl child, separated from its parents at Abbi falls, reunited with her parents with the help of police and local people.
The girl child came with its parents to Abbi falls at Madikeri. But it was separated from her parents and the photo and audio about the girl have gone viral in social media including WhatsApp. When Madikeri police were contacted, they told Varthabharati that the child was handed over to its parents.
On Sunday, a Mangaluru-based family came to the falls with the child and spent some time there before moving to other place. Out of six children of the family, three children sat in the rear seat of the car while coming. As a result, the family members did notice the separation of the child from their group while going, it is said.
The family which left Abbi falls travelled for almost one hour. While distributing the snacks to the children, the members noticed that the child is missing. Suddenly, they returned to the falls and took the child back home, said police.
Though the child was reunited with its parents within an hour, the photo and audio message is still being circulated in the social media.

Patna, Dec 26: RJD president Lalu Prasad on Thursday slammed the BJP over alleged heckling of a woman artist who sang a bhajan, known to be a favourite of Mahatma Gandhi, at a function organised on the birth anniversary of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee a day ago.
The RJD supremo, on his X handle, alleged that the BJP leaders had taken exception to the phrase 'Sita Ram' and asked the singer to apologise before erupting in roars of "Jai Shri Ram".
The well-attended function was held on Wednesday at Bapu Sabhagar, a sprawling state-of-the-art auditorium in the heart of the city.
The septuagenarian alleged that the incident was "reflective of the misogyny that the BJP and the Sangh Parivar was known for" and its "disdain for females was resulting in disrespect for 'Sita Mata'."
However, BJP sources, who did not wish to be named, pointed out that the newspaper report shared by Prasad in an earlier tweet clearly stated that the furore was not over 'Sita Ram', but the subsequent stanza - 'Ishwar Allah Tero Naam'.
The sources claimed that party workers were opposed to the "recital of a line that was not part of the original verse composed by 15th-century poet Narsi Mehta, but inserted later, apparently in line with Gandhi's Hindu-Muslim unity plank".
संघियों और भाजपाइयों को “जय सियाराम, जय सीताराम” के नाम एवं नारे से शुरू ही नफरत है क्योंकि उसमें माता सीता का जयकारा है। ये लोग शुरू से ही महिला विरोधी है तथा “जय श्री राम’ के नारे के साथ आधी आबादी महिलाओं का भी अपमान करते हैं।
