Cruel sons Drag by father to Delhi High Court

There are many stories of old parents being cruelly treated and abandoned by their kids, but one man has decided to fight for his dignity and right to life. 87-year-old Jaswat Singh, a resident of West Patel Nagar, has moved the Delhi High Court through advocate VK Anand Narrating his plight to the court, Jaswat Singh mentioned in his petition that his sons locked up his room and did not let him in. With no roof on the head and with bare minimum resources he had to seek shelter at the Sis Ganj Sahib Gurdwara in Chandni Chowk. My family has not hesitated to use cuss words to insult me and hurt me emotionally. At times I even thought of taking extreme steps but then I realised that I should fight for my dignity," says Singh.My health has further deteriorated in the winters without proper care," says Singh. Singh has also mentioned that his family members had warned him of dire consequences if he was seen near their house. The petition said, "Life of the petitioner is in danger as Singh's sons are advancing threats of dire consequences in case he is seen in the West Patel locality or tries to enter in his own house." A police official from Patel Nagar police station said that an attempt was made to resolve the problem but it did not help. The court has also asked the police to file a status report. Singh has now moved out from the Sis Ganj Sahib Gurdwara to his daughter's house. She is the only family member who has decided to lend him support. Troubled with the daily emotional and mental harassment, Singh approached the officials of Patel Nagar police station but returned empty handed. When contacted, one of the Singh's sons told Mail Today, "Our plan of action would be based on the summoning orders from the court."
