With four sons, this old couple is struggling to live as they take over their house & beat them

A 55-year-old man Omprakash Nagvanshi and his 50-year-old wife Vidya, who raised four sons by working in mills in Ujjain is now forced to beg for pennies from the same four sons, and in return just gets beaten up.Begging the administration to help him, the couple approached the collector at Jan Sunwai on Tuesday.
The urged the collector and other authorities to help him live a respectable and safe live by helping him get rights back to his owned duplex house. “People always pray and wish to have sons, I have four and all that has brought me is pain, helplessness and a life worse than death,” Nagvanshi said.
He was an average person with limited education, who earned his bread by working in mills in Ujjain. In 2002, when the mills shut down, he moved to Indore and built a house with the settlement remuneration in Gauri Nagar.
With four sons, he decided to make a duplex so that his family could stay happily together in future. To his misfortune, the sons stay together in the house but the concept of family, happiness and love is far gone.
While the couple works as full-time nanny for their 6 grandchildren and take care of every chore of the house, the four sons refuse to even provide them a meal in a day. “My wife suffers from diabetes, so having meals on time is must but if she asks for meal, my sons pull her hair and drag her on the floor,” Nagvanshi said.
With four of them with their wives against them, the old couple feels helpless. “We can never have the family that we desired, but we don’t want to die like this,” Nagvanshi said.
The couple had filed a complaint at Palasiya thane before this to get their ownership rights to their house and ask their children to move out. However, no solution came out of it.
The four sons Kamlesh, Deepak, Vijay and Dinesh are working in different fields like tailoring, sales executives, tower installations and salesman.
The couple has been surviving on leftovers and help from brother-in-law (Shyam Lal Jindal) since their sons got married. The situation has worsened over the years and now left them no choice to either die or kick their sons out.
On Tuesday, a complaint about the case was filed with SSP Ruchi Vardhan Mishra. She has forwarded the complaint to CSP Nihit Upadhyaya and asked the couple to coordinate with him further.
