A video showing an 80-year-old woman left alone at Mandsaur bus stand in Madhya Pradesh has left the internet condemning the inhuman act by her family.
A disturbing video from Madhya Pradesh’s Mandsaur has triggered widespread outrage after it showed an elderly woman sitting alone and crying at a busy bus stand, allegedly after being abandoned by her own family. The clip, which has since gone viral, captures the 80-year-old woman in visible distress as she pleads for help from passersby.
According to claims circulating alongside the video, the woman was left at the bus stand following a family dispute. A man recording the clip explains the situation on camera, identifying her as the mother of a schoolteacher. “She is a teacher’s mother. His name is Suresh Sharma, and his wife treated this elderly woman badly. She is now going to her daughter’s place,” he says.
He further draws attention to her condition, adding, “Look at her situation. Even after being a teacher, people are unable to take care of their mother. She is crying a lot.” The remarks, while unverified, have intensified public anger and concern.

The world is facing an energy crisis as Iran blocked supplies passing through the Strait of Hormuz after strikes by the US and Israel. Vital subsea cables that carry global internet traffic also pass through Hormuz. Any damage to them could trigger internet outages and hit financial systems across countries, including in India.

Images of pre-Islamic Zoroastrian kings and warriors have been unveiled in Iran, evoking courage and resilience. Many say the Ayatollah regime in Iran revives the country's Persian identity during conflicts with Israel and the US. But this Persian heritage has always run deep, and is visible from time to time, in both dissent and unity.
