An 82-year-old woman who was thought to be dead was united with her two daughters after 40 years.
Hailing from the Inayatpur village in Majahwan town, Vilasa had supposedly died of a snake bite in 1976. She was bitten by a black cobra when she had gone to gather fodder in the fields. The last rites were performed and her 'body' was immersed in the Ganga.
However, Vilasa returned home on Friday and said that she had only lost consciousness and had not died of the snake bite.
According to the Times of India, some boatmen had rescued her and taken her to their village temple.
Her daughters were shocked to see her alive. "My mother said that she had lost her consciousness and her memory. A few days ago, she recalled the incident and narrated it to a girl who discussed the matter with her uncle. The girl's uncle contacted one Chetram (82) who too recalled that he had attended Vilasa's funeral. Later, Chetram contacted us and apprised us of the development,"  her elder daughter Ram Kumari told The Times of India.
