JAIPUR: In the ever-rising toll from the Covid pandemic, Supriya, 16, and Bindiya, 13, find their parents only in pictures tucked in a corner of their living room in Rajasthan’s Sikar district.
Stunned into silence – their mom and dad died in a span of just three days the sisters stare vacuously at the ceiling, their welled-up eyes struggling to defy the grief.
Life was as good as it could get for the Joshis just a month back. The sisters’ father Vijay, 45, was into property business in Fatehpur town along with his elder brother, Sri Krishna Joshi.
“Vijay had sent his daughters to an English-medium school, about 10 km from our home. He dreamed big for his daughters,” says Sri Krishna, 67.
