Bhubaneswar: Video of a toddler girl tied to the window of a hotel at Khandagiri Square in Odisha capital and being thrashed by its staff has gone viral, creating outrage among people.
Taking cognisance of the matter, Bhubaneswar Childline lodged a complaint in this regard with Khandagiri police on Saturday.
In the video, the one-and-a-half-year-old girl can be seen tied to the window of the hotel with a towel and the staff hitting her face with a stick.
