Please correct the date of expiry of Bare Papa.
He passed away on December 27, 1970. Oh How can I ever forget that day…we were at Nani’s place in Raza Textile when early in the morning the guard from the gate came and said…Peepal Tole se phone aayaa tha. Dewan ji nahin rahe…. Daddy, mummy, dada, me and guria all in one rikshaw braving the chill of Rampuri December morning reached Dewan House.
