The parents of both the girls reached here on Wednesday and took them back, he added.

The Blue Whale Challenge, reportedly created by a former convict in Russia, is said to psychologically provoke players to indulge in daring, self-destructive tasks for 50 days before finally taking the "winning" step of killing themselves.According to media reports, over six cases across India have been suspected to be linked to the deadly game.
