On April 23 2009 at the UPSLSA’S office in Jawahar Bhawan Saraswati held her bundle of joy for the first time since his birth and the bonding of both was instant.
Now finally on her way back to Andhra Pradesh her home state she will be handed over to the Andhra Pradesh State Legal Services Authority(APLSA) who will put her in a home with her child and make efforts to locate her family and reunite her with them.
But Saraswati and Saksham are not likely to forget their trip to the city of nawabs. And rightly so, as it was a trip that changed their lives for ever, so much so that they both have now a weill to live for ecah other.
