Bihar Journal of Public AdministrationSummary: It is a dominant assumption that the socio-political and gender issues have gripped the rural society, especially in Bihar that tell upon the interests and well being of weaker sections. This has been reflected in a recent OTT webseries entitled, Nirmal Pathak ki Ghar Wapsi.
