This Hyderabad man has performed last rites of 13, 000 unclaimed bodies

A man in Hyderabad runs a foundation for doing pioneering service by performing the last rites of unclaimed and unidentified bodies.

K Rajeshwar Rao, the founder of Satya Harishchandra Foundation started photographing unknown bodies soon after they were sent to the morgue.

The website is www.unknownbodies.org.
