RANCHI: Unable to bring up their twin daughters because of their poor financial conditions, a poverty-stricken couple was forced to give away their newborn twin daughters in Jharkhand. The couple already has three daughters and a son.
They claimed that their decision was taken in the interest of the newborn daughters so that they could be taken care of properly and do not have to face any hardships later.
The husband and wife work as a daily wage labourer and domestic help respectively. “Due to very poor financial conditions, somehow we are bringing up three daughters and a son, but it is not possible for us to afford the expenses of bringing up two more children. Therefore, we were compelled to give away our newborn twin daughters to others so that they could be taken care of in a proper way,” said Mein Kewat who gave away one of his newborn to a relative in Chandipur and the other another family member in Hosir.
