The young daughter of a British doctor has drowned after she slipped from his arms in India and fell into a fast-flowing river.

Megha Reddy - an anaesthetist from Wolverhampton - was on a family holiday near Hyderabad.

According to reports, the search for 18 month old Manvi was delayed as neighbouring police authorities argued over who was responsible.

The toddler's body was found two days later, three miles downstream.
