There is a glimmer of hope for the battered baby, Falak, with doctors at the AIIMS hospital taking her off the ventilator on Friday, days after they said her chances of survival lessened.
According to media reports quoting All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Baby Falak´s lungs condition has improved and her kidney and liver are functioning better.
She is tolerating feed, said Dr MC Mishra.
The AIIMS doctors, who are treating two-year-old Falak for the last several weeks, on Wednesday had said that the survival chances of the battered baby has reduced.
"The chances of survival of the baby is less than 50 percent," they had said.
The baby was suffering from brain infection and that had made the condition of Falak more critical.
"Brain infection is devastating," doctors said on Wednesday.
The battered baby was brought to the hospital by a 15-year-old girl on Jan 18 who claimed herself to be the girl´s mother but later said she was given the baby by his adult boyfriend and herself had been sexually abused too by the man for whom police are now on the lookout.
