Topic Reading-Vol.1623-9/20/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
The widows who can’t return home
While there are philanthropic, or simply just economic, investors in India who offer smartphones and 4G services at incredibly low prices, there are unbelievable customs still being practiced in India. Thrown out widows. Right after the moment their husband dies, they seem to be treated as if they no longer exist or become harmful on others in the family. The affection, dedication and relationship they had built for years turned into the past. They have nowhere to go or live in.
There seem to be numbers of such unfortunate, miserable widows in India, especially in rural areas. Some of them live by themselves under miserable conditions, waiting to finish their lives while others settle in dedicated shared houses for widows in a city south of Delhi where over 20,000 such widows live.
Is that their very religion that turns their lives into the situation like this while the religion is their only hope and pillar of their rest of lives?
Enjoy reading and thinking what the causes of such practice are.
