A baby girl was admitted at the electronic cradle of Ammathottil Kerala State Council for Child Welfare here on Monday evening.
The baby girl, about 10 days old and weighing 2.64 kg, was named Nyla after Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing.
Doctors from the Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Thycaud declared the baby healthy after an examination.
Nyla is the sixth child the council has welcomed this year. Anyone claiming a child should approach the council as its adoption proceedings are about to begin, GL council general secretary Arun Gopi said.
