An elderly couple living in the Indian state of Uttarakhand told the newspaper Times of India that the money they asked the couple to pay was actually money spent on raising Shrey.

In particular, Shrey’s pilot training course in the US in 2006 was 65,000 USD, and a luxury car was given as a gift at the wedding.

”I have only one son. I spent all my savings to raise and send my children to school.” Mr. Sanjeev said.

”My son returned to India in 2007 after the world economy fell into recession. He lost his job and couldn’t find another job for more than 2 years. I also had to financially support my son during this time.” Mr. Sanjeev added.

According to Mr. Sanjeev, he also arranged the meeting marriage for his son with his current daughter-in-law after his son was accepted to work for a company.

But the father-in-law accused his son and daughter-in-law of “infinite psychological torture” by not giving them a grandchild despite being married for six years.

Mr. Sanjeev added that his wife and son do not live together but live in different states due to the nature of their work. In addition, the fact that the daughter-in-law did not live with her parents-in-law also made them “suffer more psychological impact and cause great pain”.

AK Srivastava, the lawyer representing the Sanjeevs, told ANI News that the case “represents the truth in Indian society”.

”They have invested in their children and helped them get jobs at reputable companies. The son owes his parents a financial support. Lawyer Srivastava said that the client made a request that either the couple give birth to a child within a year, or pay compensation.

Lawyer Srivastava added that the elderly couple wanted to sue their son and daughter-in-law for “causing serious psychological harm”.

”It’s every parent’s dream to become a grandparent. They had to wait many years to become grandparents. lawyer said.

It is known that the trial of Mr. Prasads’ family will take place on May 17.

In fact, many couples in India are under great pressure from family members to have children. Even many Indian women are brutally beaten just because they cannot bear a son.
