Self-immolated Raja Rind’s funeral coincides with his son’s birth NAUSEHRO FEROZE: The funeral prayer of Raja Rind Wednesday, who severely struck by persisting unemployment and poverty in utter frustration had self-immolated Tuesday in Islamabad, coincided with the birth of his son throwing the family in a queer situation of sorrow mixed with joy.

A pal of sorrow and grief had overcast his house when Raja Rind’s self-immolated body had arrived at his house here, while today when preparation for funeral was underway and the funeral prayer was being offered at his native village Haji Sain Dad, a happy coincidence occurred with the birth of a son to his wife Najma at the local hospital.

The nature has its own way taking away a life and giving birth to a new life in tandem that sent the citizens of Kandiaro area here into a queer life-time feeling of a milieu of sorrow and joy.

His family told that Raja Rind had gone to Islamabad in search of a job for himself to support his two sons, wife and old dependent father and mother, but in utter frustration torched himself to death in front of the Parliament House.
