The woman, named Phoolwati, was a cook at the primary school in Pajawa village, Bilaspur tehsil of Rampur, for years. She had no family, and when the principal, Dr. Pooja Rani, spoke to her, she discovered what happened in Phoolwati's life.

Through her careful listening and investigation, she found out that Phoolwati was originally from Azamgarh. Using this clue, Dr. Rani contacted officials in Azamgarh, and after a few days of relentless effort, they found Phoolwati's family.

The family of Phoolwati was overwhelmed with joy, and the family members of Phoolwati visited her in the village, showing their gratitude to Dr. Rani.
