Girl gets aid after DC report in Hyderabad

Health minister Dr Laxma Reddy has also offered free treatment for the girl.

Hyderabad: Based on a report in these columns on Friday about the parents of an 11-year-old girl, Harshita, approaching the SHRC for permission for euthanasia for their daughter who is suffering from end stage liver disease, an NGO came forward to offer them support.
