Siddhesh, 12, a boy suffering from severe celebral palsy is sitting on a toilet bowl inside his home in Nariyal Kheda, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, central India, site of the infamous 1984 gas tragedy. Siddhesh's father has abandoned him years ago. His mother is also suffering from mental retardation, and they now live with Siddhesh's maternal grandfather on the meagre pension he has earned after working as a civil servant. In 1984 Siddhesh's mother survived the poisonous gas cloud that enveloped Bhopal, leaving everlasting consequences that today continue to consume people's lives.
