The picturesque Dadhkai village in the Himalayan mountains of Jammu and Kashmir is known as the village of the deaf and mute. Each of the 47 families residing there has at least one member afflicted and local residents say numbers are on the rise. The village has a long history of deaf and mute children, with the first reported case dating back to 1931. The number has swelled to 82 and villagers blame the environment and say their village could be cursed. (Reuters video)
