Salma Chaudhary, who is returning to Pakistan, told that she is going to her house after about seven months. Her seven-year-old son and husband are waiting at home. Salma, who hails from Saharanpur, was married nine years ago in Karachi. She came to her maternal home Saharanpur 15 days before the lockdown came into force. Salma reveals that she is excited to meet her son.
Thanks to the Indian Ministry of External Affairs who has approved the daughters to visit their in-laws during the corona. Salma says that although I had no problem in the maiden. She was with her parents and siblings, but the desire to meet her seven-year-old son made her cry. In Karachi, son and husband used to talk on mobile every day, but when the son asked when he would come home, it was difficult to stop the tears.
Hindustan my birth land, Pakistan my in-laws
Shagufta told that she had come to her maternal home to meet her ailing mother. The lockdown was implemented only three days later. The family is in Pakistan. Having reached the attic, now I will reach the children soon, thinking that the steps towards the husband and children standing on the other side of the border are moving on their own. According to Shagufta, both India and Pakistan are good. I was born in the soil of India. This country is very strange to me. Pakistan is my husband's home. He is also close to heart. Thanks to the governments of both countries, who made arrangements to send Pakistani citizens to their homes.
