The water contamination has led to serious health problems and physical disabilities in Churaman Nagar village.

Gaya/Patna (Bihar): Krishna Manjhi is only 35, but he looks much older. His neck is bent, making him unable to lift up his head. He cannot straighten his back, and the bones of his feet are thin and crooked. He can’t walk without a stick.

Krishna is an orphan and his two brothers live in separate houses. Krishna could not get married due to his physical disability.

“Till seven or eight years ago, Krishna was perfectly healthy and used to play football with us,” says Naresh Mandal, who is Krishna’s age. “Slowly, his back, neck and knees began to ache. Now, he cannot walk without support.”

Krishna lives in Churaman Nagar in the Churi panchayat area, 100 km from Bihar’s capital Patna and just eight km from Gaya.
