After nearly two years in office, she finds herself back on the streets, selling vegetables as a mark of protest against the disrespect she has been made to allegedly put up with.
When she became the deputy mayor of Gaya town in Bihar, after having swept its streets for decades, Chinta Devi felt the 'city of salvation' has, finally, presented her with her own deliverance.
After nearly two years in office, she finds herself back on the streets, selling vegetables as a mark of protest against the disrespect she has been made to allegedly put up with.
She asked, "What is the point in my being deputy mayor if I am not kept in the loop about the goings on in the municipal corporation?" Devi, who worked for 35 years as an employee (sweeper) of the Gaya Municipal Corporation, was elected deputy mayor of Gaya in December 2022, two years after her retirement.
