Tirupati: The state govt has suspended district women and child welfare officer M Nagamani following the recent death of a two month-old baby Niroop in Anantapur. 

The infant allegedly died due to the negligence of the staff working at the govt-managed specialised adoption agency. Following public outrage, chief minister Chandrababu Naidu had ordered a detailed probe into the incident. 

Taking a serious note of the negligence, the govt issued suspension orders with immediate effect to Nagamani on Tuesday. 

While memos were already issued to the staff at the agency, a detailed probe into the incident is also underway.
