Love knows no bounds, but in Bihar’s Muzaffarpur, it has sparked fury and flight. Teacher Shaishta Parveen, 28, eloped with principal Rakesh Sah, 60, marrying in Nepal on February 18 via Hindu customs. In a stunning revelation, she birthed their baby girl on February 21 at Sitamarhi hospital, currently under police guard.
Sparks flew in 2025 between the school leader and his staffer, evolving into passion that bridged generational and faith gaps. Janakpur hosted their union to sidestep local opposition. Yet, online wedding shares triggered a family storm.
Accusations flew as Shaishta’s brother filed charges at Aurai outpost: abduction, coercion, conversion—implicating Rakesh’s kin. He painted a tale of luring her from school premises.
Undeterred, the new mother recorded a defiant video bedside: ‘Every step was mine, thoughtfully taken since our 2025 bond. No baseless attacks on Sir; I’m secure.’
Police retrieved her swiftly. Post-delivery care happens in custody at the private clinic. Rakesh evades capture amid ongoing searches. Recovery will lead to judicial statement. Doctors report mother and baby thriving.
This polarizing tale intertwines romance, religion, and rights, captivating the public. It underscores dilemmas in pursuing cross-barrier love amid traditional strongholds.
