Satya awaits release of her husband who has been in Pakistan s jail for 49-years now.
Seventy-five-year-old Satya Devi who lives in Jalandhar was just a 26-year-old when her Lance Nayak husband Mangal Singh was taken prisoner of war by the Pakistan army in 1971.
Satya s hope to meet her husband was rekindled by a letter written by the President of India s office on December 2, 2020 stating that he was alive and efforts are being made to get him released along with others.
