Was this due to poverty or family problems. Whatever the reason, abandoning children is not acceptable in a civilized society.

Due to fear if unethical conversions some orphanages run by churches are having excess space as they can only have children of their own faith. if there I a mechanism to achieve all objectives without wasting such space underutilized we may be able to do more for society. Even allow orphanages to support parents who are allowed to visit like a hostel and if situation improves take them back. if not let the orphanages take care until the parents are more capable.

Whoever abandoned the children must be caught punished, children must be taken into social care.

Ordinary people are struggling to feed their children. Leeches of Diyawannawa are enjoying luxuries.

Taxi driver, who had given a false address, maybe complicit. A passenger may leave a five year old boy in the taxi, but would carry the six-month old girl with herself if she has to be absent for a short while. Wonder if the police people noted the registration number of the taxi together with driver's identity details.
