An infant housed at the Kerala State Council for Child Welfare has unfortunately passed away at a government hospital, sources revealed on Saturday. The five-month-old reportedly experienced health complications prior to his death.

The child was rushed to medical care as soon as he displayed signs of distress, but tragically, he did not survive. Initial speculation pointed to issues like milk aspiration and breathing difficulties, but these remain unverified by local authorities.
