Mritunjay Pathak who is the Sarpanch of the Rataitha panchayat along with dignitaries Sri. Dilip Pathak & Sri. Dev Prakash. More than twenty-five rural well-wishers took part to oversee and monitor the relief programme happening at their remote village. They were very happy to see the happy faces among their villagers and had especially come to share joy with their neighbours on this occasion.
