Ludhiana, July 19

The Christian Medical College and Hospital (CMCH), here, has appealed to the public to contribute funds for the treatment of a seven-month-old baby, who got injured after the roof of a room of her house collapsed in Ludhiana on Thursday. The incident took place on May 21 when the roof came crashing down, injuring the baby and her parents.
