Reel story of Bajrangi Bhaijaan has touched numerous members’ heart and Salman Khan received many applauds for the effort he experiences to reach the girl to her home town.

The same situation took place in Real time, the girl named Geeta who unexpectedly reaches to Pakistan after a decade returned back to home today with the help of a foundation named Edhi foundation.

The speech and hearing impaired woman was found sitting alone in the Samjhauta Express at the age of eight by the Pakistan Rangers 15 years ago at Lahore railway station. The police then took her to the Edhi foundation in Lahore and later shifted her to Karachi.

"We have handed over Geeta to India and I hope that India will also release 459 Pakistani prisoners. Pakistan high commissioner Abdul Basit will host a reception to Geeta in the evening today and we will be there," the media head of Pakistan High Commission, Manzoor Memon told to the media.

Geeta who was arrived in New Delhi today was welcomed by the Indian officials. The External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said that, “No matter if we find Geeta's parents or not, she is the daughter of India and we will take care of her. Geeta has refused to recognise her family after meeting them. The Indian government will still conduct DNA test. We are sending Geeta to an Institution in Indore. We had decided that even if Geeta's parents are not traced, we will still get her back to India. Four different families from four different states had claimed that Geeta was their daughter. I wrote to CMs of the four states to probe the claim.”

Faisal Edhi of the Edhi Foundation which is Pakistan’s largest charity, told reporters “they would stay in touch with Geeta through social media and even visits her. She is not really separating from us.”
