An extended family of seventeen walks on the searing road, carrying a seriously injured boy on a make-shift stretcher. They don't have enough food, money or even slippers for the 1300-km journey home - from Ludhiana to Madhya Pradesh's Singrauli. They get help in Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur, but by then they have walked over 800 km, taking turns to carry the boy. The police later arranged a truck for them.
