Meanwhile, the sarpanch of Bambiha Bhai village in Moga, from where Eknoor's parents hail, has demanded that the body be laid to rest immediately.
Said sarpanch Gurcharan Singh, "the state government wants to give only Rs 5 lakh compensation and a job to Rooth's father Taranjit Singh, according to his qualifications". He demanded a hike in compensation.
Doctors at Bathinda civil hospital said Eknoor suffered from infantile tremor syndrome (ITS), multi-vitamin deficiency and malnutrition.
