New Delhi: The Centre on Thursday sought a report from the Punjab government on the death of a teenage girl after she was allegedly molested and thrown off a moving bus.

"We have sought a report from the state government on the incident and the report is expected at anytime," a top Home Ministry official said today.

"It is expected that the state administration will ensure proper medical care for the injured mother of the deceased girl," he said.
