According to Papamma, uperintendent in-charge of the Shishugraha, their father who works in Pune as a labourer pleaded inability to take care of the girls and gave them up for adoption. Their mother reportedly eloped with her paramour leaving the kids unattended in a local train. Papamma said that on August 5 last year, Marilingappa and his family were returning home to Rajapur in Gulbarga city after offering prayers at a temple, when in a passenger train they found two girls crying. When asked why they were crying, Mahananda and Lakshmi said their mother left them in train and went away with somebody. Marilingappa thought of providing shelter to the children and brought them to his house but later on the advice of his friends that keeping destitute children is an offence, he brought the sisters to Shishugraha on September 2, last year, Papamma said. Since then the officials of the Shishugraha were trying to trace the parents and it was only recently that they found out that the sisters belonged to Lengti. Mahananda’s parents Ranoji and Sharanamma had three daughters. The eldest daughter is being taken care off by their uncle. When Ranoji was summoned by the Children Welfare Committee of Gulbarga to take the children back home, he informed the Committee, that to repay a loan of Rs 2 lakh that his father had taken before he died Ranoji had to move to Pune and was working in a brick kiln for the past 10 months. Chairman of the Committee Anandaraj said that efforts were still on to persuade Ranoji to take back the girls as they need parental love and affection. first published:August 27, 2012, 11:47 ISTlast updated:August 27, 2012, 11:47 IST
