Lakhandevi Paswan, who went to Sitamarhi in India on Wednesday morning for treatment after suffering from stomach pain, did not find her home when she returned in the evening. She was looking at the ruins of the house after the house and property were reduced to ashes due to the fire that broke out in the afternoon.
"The house built with a lifetime's worth of 2 lakh cash, jewellery, grain leaves and documents, and everything in it was destroyed," she was expressing her grief. What to eat now? What to bring?' The family is in tears after the 4 thatched houses in which the family of eight lives were burnt down. She said that the house was built with the money sent by her son from abroad and collected by her husband Sitaram by driving his car.
The fire that broke out in two villages of Matihani Municipality-6 Jaralhawa Gachi Basti from 12 noon on Wednesday was brought under control only after 7 hours. The entire village of the poor community has been burnt to ashes.

240,000 after not being able to pay the money taken from the bank, Harichan Sah has also become crazy after losing his house and all his money. He told that all the beggars who had collected enough grain to eat for a year after stealing from others were left behind.
I was worried about how to live now. All earned is gone. One buffalo survived by being tied to a square, the rest were consumed by fire,” said Shah. He told that his life was saved because everyone pulled him out while sleeping inside the house.
According to local Anil Sah, a house was set on fire from a corner of straw, and the fire spread due to a gas cylinder bursting.
