    Stick to such insensible statements when someone from your own family commits something untoward, such statements make fun of their plight, you would never know what those people going through and make a decision to end life

    Why are you always after 15 latkhs? What will your 15 lakhs do if one suffers from numerous ailments coupled by negligence from family members and deprived of peace of mind? Always pray for one's good health and peace of mind.
