Manyam: A father carried his son on his shoulders for nearly 5 kilometres to reach a hospital after the boy developed a fever, as the village lacks proper road connectivity in Parvathipuram Manyam district.

The boy, Yashwanth, a native of Rebba-Vanadha village in Komarada mandal, was suffering from fever. With no proper road facility available, his father had no option but to carry him on his shoulders and walk to Kuneru Hospital for treatment.
