Though it was not clear for how long the girl was tied to the chain, the pictures circulated on social media suggest it was taken after school hours. With a ping bag lying at a distance and blue water bottle near her feet, it has pained Netizens of the world and many questioned how could the mother not be punished.
 
ACP Sadari however, said officers were investigating the case under a local Child Act dealing with neglect and exposure of a child to physical injury, the report added.
