This story is an emotional roller-coaster ride, and I am in tears even thinking about it.

Happy Tears. BHOJPURI Tears to be honest.

Never in my entire life had I found myself so helpless and incapable as I did on the day my father departed for his heavenly abode. Only a day before, when I reached Kishanganj from Delhi to see my ailing father, I found him lying normally.

Bihar was once considered and portrayed as a fine example of backwardness and was associated with everything that is wrong with the state.
