The family lives under tattered polythenes or took shelter in abandoned houses. It was rainy season that they were forced to turn to a toilet for shelter. In photographs, Naik is seen sitting at the toilet gate while in the second his daughter sleeps next to the toilet pan. Talking to leading daily, Naik shares that from past few months he has been sleeping in the toilet. His wife cooks outside and they use the nearby forest for defecation.
