Pradeep was carried by her mother at the back. At the moment her mother was making the traditional alcohol while carrying him. Suddenly the knot which was bound behind her back to carry Pradeep got detached & he fell into the boiling water but luckily his left hand only got caught by the boiling water. His left hand was completely burned by the boiling water & his parents didn’t take him to the hospital for the treatment thinking that it would be cured by using the natural herb. He was treated with natural herbs but it is not working properly on his hand. He should have been sent to the hospital but due to the economic problem his parents weren’t able to pay the hospital fee. So they depend on medicinal herbs and witch doctor for his treatment.
