Swati, wife of Rama Naik and the mother of 5 children was introduced to us by Pastor Kumar.   Swati’s Husband used to doubt her of having extramarital affairs and would beat and abuse her constantly after getting drunk, he would also beat the children frequently. Due to his abusive behaviour, Swati once tried committing suicide by pouring kerosene on her body and burnt herself in order to prove that she was innocent. Though she was rescued and taken to the hospital, Swati suffered from severe burn injuries especially on her chest. Even after the incident, Swati’s husband did not stop his abusive behaviours and when she was discharged from the hospital he started to beat and molest her again. He later threw Swati and her children out of his house. Swati along with her children started residing with her parents. Her parents are also financially poor and cannot support them for long. Swati now works as a house maid to support her family but cannot manage to do hard jobs. The income earned by Swati is very less and insufficient to look after her five children. As she came to us for help, three of Swati’s children were quickly admitted into our Homes but two of them returned back as they wished to stay with their mother.
