He said his two brothers are also disabled. Ghulam Nabi has small children and a wife. He had bought a small house at Daneen, but when he was diagnosed with cancer, his children began to suffer from starvation due to no income and nothing to purchase eatable things. Ghulam Nabi said that he belongs to the Gujjar community who has no property or any other source of income except selling things on a small cart.
Ghulam Nabi also sold his personal house in Daneen to feed his children. Ghulam Nabi himself was deprived of food and drink and he continued to take soft food through a pipe fixed in his throat by pushing through a syringe.
He has a small son and a daughter who are not able to earn something for his family. According to Ghulam Nabi, when he fell ill, he was not even able to work.
