Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): A heartbreaking video of a grieving mother has surfaced on social media after her son hanged himself to death in Bhopal.

"Hum jaan de denge..." the video shows the woman crying inconsolably, accusing the Bhopal district administration and the municipal corporation of her son's death.

The deceased has been identified as Shadab. He worked as an autorickshaw driver to earn a livelihood. Shadab would live with his family in a slum area opposite Hotel Taj on Bhadbhada Road. However, earlier this year, the houses were demolished.
