The family is facing problems
Mansi, who came from Khatima, told that her father works as an agent in a small private job and he is more than 60 years old. They leave for their work in the morning and travel by buses throughout the day. His mother also cannot walk properly. She is wandering in Dehradun leaving her ailing mother.

Deeksha Chauhan, who came from Chakrata, told that her parents are no more and she has no brother. Their elder sister worked hard for seven-eight years to educate them, after getting selected in this examination they thought that the future of both of them would be better but they still see darkness.
Girls forced to wander hungry and thirsty
Ishita said that she has come from Pauri and apart from her family, she has no one in Dehradun. He has to wander with his colleagues for his appointment here. When those people, hungry and thirsty, approach the officials and ask about their appointment, they are asked to meet the ministers. He says that if we had such good talks with our ministers, we would not have been wandering like this.
Mini told that her parents are ill and she is meeting the expenses by taking loan. He is requesting Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami to get his appointment done soon. It is very important to solve the problem of these daughters. As time progresses, their faith is wavering.
