The incident unfolded as the mother, Manju Yadav, performed religious rituals at home when her infant, Krishna Yadav, inadvertently reached the hot liquid. His cries for help prompted his mother and uncle, Umesh Yadav, to rush the baby to the District Hospital's burn ward in critical condition. Krishna, whose full name is Krishna Yadav, was identified as the victim. The family's religious observance of a nine-day Navratri fast added to their concern for the infant's wellbeing. Manju had initiated the puja ceremony while Krishna played nearby. Following the accident, the family immediately sought medical assistance, initially at a nearby hospital before being transferred to Chhatarpur District Hospital.
