Witness Monu Balmiki, 27, said: 'We saw a woman lying near the railway track and informed the police.
'But when we got closer we spotted a child next to her crying and drinking her milk. It brought tears to our eyes.'
Officer Nand Ram, who is the head constable of the Government Railway Police, said: 'The toddler was crying for his mother and on receiving no response from her; he held her and started drinking milk from her. 
'We were shocked to see it, it was very sad. The woman was lying dead while the child was sitting next to her scratchless. 
'This was something we have never seen before. It was quite emotional for us all.
A hospital spokesman said: 'The child was brought here around 10am this morning.
'We conducted a physical examination on him and he was suffering from a cold but has been given medication. 
'He has no other complications and we'll make sure he's taken care of.' 
They added that arrangements were being made to take the boy to an orphanage until his family are tracked down.
