However, her second brother in law  was involved in illegal business activities- supplying girls to roadside Dhabas. Regrettably, he was also planning to sell Parbati at Dhaba. It was a more shocking that other family members including her parents were involved in this plan.

In the mean time, Parbati was in love with Saroj- a Bihari guy. She did not inform the matter to her parents because Saroj was a Bihari and the family members would not be accept the relationship. But when she knew about the plan of her family members to sell her, she came to Saroj and married him in the court at Talcher without informing the family members. They stayed together for 3 days in a rented house in the town. Her brother-in-law came to know about them and attacked him physically. He forcefully separated the newly married couple from each other.

Life became a prison for her. Obviously, she was in search of an opportunity to get rid of her family members, especially her brother-in-law. When she got a chance to escape, she took advantage of the opportunity successfully for a new but uncertain life. Initially she took shelter in a stranger’s house. She was absolutely ignorant about the NYSASDRI Short Stay Home (SSH).

One of the advocates of Talcher court ringed to the SSH and informed the matter in detail. The superintendent of SSH visited Parbati and her Parbati to stay at the SSH. As she belongs to Dhenkanal district, the superintendent took her to the grievance cell and pleaded to the district collector. The collector permitted her to stay in the SSH. Meanwhile, Parbati’s family members came to SSH to meet her. They wanted to take her with them. But as she was not interested to meet her family members including her parents, the superintendent told them to come to grievance cell to solve the problem. The family members of Parbati did not show any interest in this proposal. On the other hand, the collector advised the superintendent of SSH to arrange the marriage between Parbati and Saroj.

Then the officials of SSH, regularly made contact with the family members of Parbati as well as with Saroj. Parbati’s second brother-in-law, who was responsible for the all the problems that she confronted, demanded that Parbati was his wife and they had intimate relationship with each other. He also claimed that Parbati was pregnant. The pregnancy test revealed that Parbati was perfectly all right and without any sign of pregnancy. Constant touch with Saroj and counselling brought about positive impact on Saroj- who formerly interested to marry Parbati. Counseling gave him more confidence and he eventually agreed to marry Parbati gain. They married with each other on 9th September 2003 in the court. Superintendent of SSH, advocate and one villager were also present there witness of the marriage.

During her stay at SSH- a period of struggle against her own people- all type of service including financial, legal, physical supports were provided to her. Now, there is no doubt that the couple will lead a cheerful life full of hope and aspiration. As a follow up action when the superintendent of SSH visited them, the couple thanked her for the assistance. During the discussion with Parbati, it was revealed that Parbati is very happy with Saroj, whom she loves.
