Due to my work, I had to go to various places for health check-ups of people. we had camped at a Jail, Orphanage, Government Women's Protection Home, and Child Rehabilitation Centre, and apart from these, camps had to be done at various rural remote places for health check-ups.
in this sequence one day our team visited the Government Women's Shelter Home to check the health of the women residing there.
In this home, minor girls who are facing trial, girls who have run away from home without being informed, women who are waiting for the decision of the case in the court, and those girls who have no one in society, live. Luckily on that day, we checked their health everyone in very early and in a short time.
Then, at last, a girl of about 18 years came for a health check-up and I was surprised to see her because her face was very similar to one of my friend's daughters, whom I met about 3-4 years before. but that girl does not recognise me or reacted by the facial expressions that she knows me.
After finishing their health check-up I met in charge of that centre and asked about this girl, it came to know that this girl was found unconscious on a train and she does not remember anything about herself and her previous life, due to any accident or, it happens in the injury in the brain.
She was living here for about 6 months; the police and the different NGOs had tried a lot but no trace of her family was found.
This girl's father Mr Ganguly was posted with me 3 years ago, and I happened to visit her house on that day when this girl came to the drawing room with a tray of tea for us, that's why I remembered her face.
By the way, there are many changes in the appearance of girls in three years and this girl has been living in the protection home for 6 months. And in this place, all the girls and women don't even get to live/eat properly and their faces change a lot.
I tried to find Mr Ganguly's phone number in my diary after returning from there but I could not find it. Then the next day I went to the office and got his number and tried to call him, but came to know that the number was switched off.
I called my headquarters and inquired about his present posting of Mr Ganguly, and from there I came to know that he was transferred first to J&K and then to some other state, but he had taken VRS and settled in some other city.
Now I had only one way to find out about him, that I would go to his last potting place and find out where he would be found.
I decided that I would find out his address and inform him that his daughter is living here in a shelter home. The very next day I took 1 week's leave and reached J&K in place of his previous posting. After reaching there, I came to know that he had settled in Varanasi, I also got his present address from one of his friends.
I also reached his address in Varanasi from J&K and met him. After asking for a long time, he told that his daughter joined some anti-national party in J&K itself, so they had thrown her out of the house, and Mr Ganguly settled in Varanasi by taking VRS to avoid her infamy.
When I told them that their daughter was living in a shelter home in my city and had lost her memory, both parents became very restless and started crying.
Then Ganguly came to my city with me, after reaching here we reached the shelter home and met the in charge there.
After giving proof etc. of that girl being his daughter and completing the legal proceedings as per the rules, he took her to his home in Varanasi.
I got a lot of mental peace by doing this. And After five years when I had almost forgotten this incident one day in front of me, the same friend came in front of me with his wife and he gave me his daughter's wedding card, and he also told me that his daughter's memory returned after long treatment and now she is going to married.
And when she remembered, she told them that when she came to know that those people were involved in anti-national activities, she ran away from there and lost her memory in an accident.
At the time of marriage When I reached to attend the wedding along with my wife and gave them a wedding gift, both the parents started crying hugging me and said that today happiness has come in this house only because of you.
