Old woman aged 70 yrs denied entry into house after returning back from Maharashtra

Karimnagar: In a heart-rending incident, a 70-year-old woman was refused to allow into the house by her family members. The only reason for her denial is that she came from Maharashtra, wherein the spread of coronavirus is rampant.

The helpless woman sat in front of her house for help. This bizarre incident was taken place in Kisannagar of Karimnagar town on Friday.

Katta Shyamala, who was residing along with family members of her three sons in Kisannagar, went to Sholapur to visit her relative’s house and stuck there due to the imposition of lockdown.

The woman, who came to her house in Karimnagar, was shocked as



her family members refused to allow her into the house on the doubt that she might have infected by Covid-19.

Though the woman explained that she tested negative for corona when the doctors carried out tests before letting her out from Sholapur, the family members had not heard her clarification. Failed in convincing family members, she sat in front of her house. Neighbours informed the matter to local corporator Edla Saritha, who took the woman to her residence.

After coming to know about the incident, police rushed the spot and warned to register a case against sons. With the police warning, the elder son of Katta Shyamala took her to the house.
