After seven days, people came out of their houses after the sun came out. Awakening
Dialogue Associate, Darbhanga. The weather pattern suddenly changed in Darbhanga, Bihar. On Thursday morning, when people came down from the bed after getting out of the warm quilt, smiles were playing on their faces.
The sunlight filtering in from outside was showing that the wave of clouds and fog that had been camping in the sky since last 19th December had dispersed. As soon as people reached the balcony and terrace after 8 o'clock, sipping tea, bright sunlight welcomed them.
But Pachhua, who was sobbing at a speed of five kilometers, was in no mood to give them any relief. The rain was intact but the sun was also there. So the women gathered courage and put the half-dried clothes lying on the fire for many days on the terrace to dry.
Due to cold, the house and bedding were not cleaned properly. So, taking advantage of the sunshine and the day off, she started washing dirty clothes and cleaning the house.
Heavy quilts and blankets were placed on the parapet of the roof to dry. Even the elders who were bedridden at home for the last seven days started yearning to come out after seeing the sunlight. It was Christmas holiday so children too were not left behind in enjoying the sunshine.
The splendor of the Christmas fair located on Donar Road increased. There was commotion in the grounds and open spaces of the locality since morning. The effect of sunshine was also seen in the markets.
There was a huge crowd of women in the vegetable market of Laheriasarai and Darbhanga Tower to buy vegetables and fruits of their choice. However, the crowd at the cosmetics shops was also not less. In Mirzapur, there was more competition for the stalls of warm clothes at discounted prices outside the shops than for the clothes.
