New Delhi: Abdul Razzaq, who came to visit the Nizamuddin Dargah, was neither allowed to offer prayers at the tomb, nor could he return home because of the sudden lockdown. His wife and four children in Bihar don't even know about his pilgrimage. Not to mention, an anxious Abdul Razzaq does not know anyone's phone number and is now worried and praying to God to get him home.

According to Abdul Razzaq, his home is in Aria Mujorah in Sitamarhi district, where his wife and 3 sons live, while a son works at a gasoline pump in Delhi's Tees Hazari and a daughter is a house helper in a bungalow. Despite being so close to his children, he is trapped in a shelter in Nizamuddin Basti because he does not have anyone's contact number.
