Rabri Devi’s Birthplace Divided: Villagers Praise, Family Cries Betrayal | Bihar Report

In this emotional and revealing episode of Witty Chokha’s Election Journey, journalist Gaurav Mishra travels to Sarai Kala village in Gopalganj, Bihar, the birthplace of Rabri Devi, the state’s only woman Chief Minister. Through heartfelt conversations with Rabri Devi’s brother, relatives, and villagers, the story uncovers two sharply contrasting sides of her legacy one of political pride and progress, and another of pain and personal neglect.

While some villagers recall her contributions roads, hospitals, schools, and recognition for the village others speak of broken promises, distance, and silence. The most emotional moment comes when Rabri Devi’s aunt (chachi) breaks down, sharing her struggles, injustice, and feelings of abandonment by her own kin.

This Witty Chokha ground report captures the duality of Bihar’s politics where power and pain coexist, and behind every leader’s success lies a story of family, emotion, and forgotten bonds.
