According to a report by Zee News, Wasim Shaikh said,” I have been running my shop for almost 12 years. It is the source of my bread and butter. My young children and elderly mother are dependent on me. I need help to even eat and drink water, how can a person with no arms pelt stones?
"Jis admi ko khana aur pani dusre log khilate hai, wo patthar kaise phek sakta hai" said Wasim Shaikh.
