A 14-year-old girl, who ran away from her home in New Delhi after being pressured by her parents to focus on studies, was reunited with her family here in Maharashtra after an auto-rickshaw driver promptly alerted police, an official said on Sunday.

On Saturday morning, the auto-rickshaw driver, Raju Karwade (35), was waiting outside Vasai station here for passengers when the girl approached him and asked if she could get a room to stay in the area, Manickpur police station's senior inspector Bhausaheb K Aher said.
