Pankaj Rana, 22, spends his time crawling across the room in which he has been kept chained ever since he was born. Suffering from quadriparesis, a disease which renders limbs immobile as well as aphasia which affects the comprehension of speech, Rana is living a life which many would term as worse than death. His mother, a widow, says that she cannot take her son to the hospital for treatment as she doesn't have enough money which is why she keeps him tied inside her small house in Saunda village located in Jakholi block of Rudraprayag district. “I have no other option but to tie up my son else he will crawl into the open and may be attacked by an animal.
