Suddenly lost contact with family 11 months ago According to the family, Abhay suddenly went out of touch with everyone 11 months ago. The family tried hard but could not talk.

Father said – there will be trouble on return, mother is sad about becoming a monk While talking to the media, Abhay’s father said that he used to talk very little since childhood. But we never had any idea that he would follow the path of spirituality. On whether he would ask his son to return home, he said that I would but it would hurt him. The decision he took for himself is right for him. I don’t want to put any pressure. He is sure of his intentions. However, the mother is not happy with the sudden retirement of her only son.
Abhay Singh said that it was very difficult to break this social circle. He said that now he does not go home.
Abhay had said – My family does not like my work When the media talked to Abhay Singh in this matter, he said that the family did not like what I wanted to do. I had no interest in my family’s talk about marriage. I always wanted to leave home. That’s why I studied at IIT Mumbai.
