New Delhi, 26 October 2015: An Indian woman found on the Pakistani side of the border more than a decade ago is on her way home after recently identifying her family in photos sent from across the border.
Geeta, who has speech and hearing impairments, was about 11 when she is believed to have strayed into Pakistan. As the time nears for Geeta to be re-united with her family, excitement looms large in the Kabeera Dhaap village in Saharsa district.
Villager Janardhan Mahato has claimed that Geeta is his daughter, Heera, who was lost in a fair in Ludhiana city in the western Indian state of Punjab which shares a border with Pakistan.
