A son returned home after 18 years in Bihar, bringing unimaginable relief to his family in Muzaffarpur. The family had believed he died years ago and even performed his last rites. His sudden return turned grief into tears of joy.
The man had gone missing in 2007 after leaving home for work. He failed to return, and repeated searches brought no result. Over time, the family lost hope and accepted him as dead.
Due to mental health challenges, the man wandered through several districts and survived with help from strangers. Recently, social workers in Chapra found him and took him to a shelter home. During counseling, he shared details about his village and family.
Officials contacted his relatives after verifying the information. When the family reached Chapra and saw him alive, emotions overwhelmed everyone. Parents hugged their son and cried uncontrollably.
The reunion ended an 18-year wait filled with pain and uncertainty. Locals praised the social welfare staff for their efforts. The story spread quickly across Bihar, reminding people that hope can survive even the longest separations.
