In This Village, Every Third Home Has A 'TB Widow', Say Activists
55-year-old Bhago, a Sahariya tribal from Madhya Pradesh, is waiting for the year to end. The year has only brought her misery as she lost her three-year-old granddaughter and elder son to Tuberculosis. Her other two sons and daughter-in-law have also been diagnosed with TB.
In these trying times, she has become the main breadwinner of the family. She said in despair, "I feel I should have died rather than them."
