Geeta to return home today from Pakistan after 15 years
Karachi, Oct 26 (IBNS) More than 15 years after she accidentally crossed the border and got stuck in Pakistan, Indian woman Geeta will return home on Monday.
The great day for the 23-year-old deaf and mute woman comes as both the governments have completed all the formalities.
Geeta was just seven or eight years old when she was found sitting alone on the Samjhauta Express by the Pakistan Rangers at the Lahore railway station.
She was adopted by the Edhi Foundation's Bilquees Edhi in Karachi.
On her way back home, she will be accompanied by Edhi and her family members.
Geeta has identified her father, step-mother and siblings from a photograph sent to her by the Indian High Commission in Islamabad. The family lives in Bihar.
