The visually challenged parents, both aged over 60, did not know that their younger son had died and they tried calling him up for food and water but did not get any response, the official said. With their feeble voice, it seemed their neighbours also could not hear them, he said.
They were offered food and water by the police.
After getting information from the couple about their elder son, who stays in another locality of the city, police informed him.
The man's body was shifted to a state-run hospital for post-mortem. A case was registered.
