Ambrish Mehta and his younger brother and sister had not seen the light of day for a decade. Consumed by grief over the death of their mother, the siblings locked themselves away in a windowless room until their dramatic rescue by volunteers this week.
A team from the Saathi Seva Group NGO led by Jalpa Patel has described the moment they broke open the door of the house where the family, identified as Ambrish, Bhavesh, and their younger sister Meghna Mehta, believed to be in their thirties and forties, had confined themselves since the year 2010.
“We were tipped off on 27 December that about three people have been living in a room for the past 10 years. When we reached there we found that they had locked the main gate of the house and refused to come out to meet anyone,” Ms Patel said.

RAJKOT: After the 70-day-long Covid-induced lockdown ended in June, people felt liberated after living among the four walls for over two months. But imagine, the condition of someone living in one room for around a decade, not even allowing sunlight to enter.
Startling as it may seem, this was how three siblings, two brothers and their sister, lived after completely withdrawing themselves from the society for 10 years. When members of Saathi Seva Group, a non-government organization (NGO), broke open their room in Rajkot’s Kisanpara area on Sunday, they were appalled at the sight.
