The unfolding story of Geeta coming home continues with its twists and turns on Tuesday. After Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a donation of Rs1 crore to the Edhi Foundation, whose founders Abdul Sattar and Bilquis Bano had adopted the young deaf-mute woman in Karachi, on Monday evening, Tuesday saw reports of the Foundation turning down this sum.

Reports started emerging that Abdul Sattar had refused Modi's donation, as the Foundation's own principals stopped it from accepting funds from governments. Modi would not be alone in his rejection, as the Foundation had also turned down donations from Pakistan's late president Zia ul-Haq.

However, contradictory to these reports, Ministry of external affairs spokesperson Vikas Swarup said that they were in touch with Bilquis Bano, who had been Geeta's mother figure all these years, and she had 'graciously accepted' the offer.

Geeta herself called on President Pranab Mukherjee on Tuesday, along with the visiting Edhi Foundation officials, including Bilquis Bano. The President blessed Geeta, calling her "the daughter of both our country, a symbol of India-Pakistan unity. God has listened to your prayers". He also complimented and thanked Bilqis Bano Edhi and Edhi Foundation for the good work they were doing.

Geeta also met Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal at his residence in the morning, who apparently offered her every possible help. In a day of adventures, she rode the Delhi metro, and visited the Metro Museum before she flew off to Indore, accompanied by Thaawar Chand Gehlot, Minister for Social Justice and Empowerment.

In Indore, till her family is located, Geeta will be with Monica Punjabi and the Indore Deaf Bilingual Academy. the Academy is run by Punjabi's mother Usha Punjabi and her father Rajkumar Punjabi is the founder. Both Usha and Rajkumar Punjabi are deaf mute, due to which they started this academy, to help others who shared their disability. Monica's thorough background as an interpreter of Indian Sign Language and educator for the deaf-mute, is what led the government to select her to help Geeta, as external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj informed the press on Monday. In Indore, Geeta is set to learn Indian Sign Language, and vocational skills. Geeta herself expressed a wish to learn these skills and work so as to be able to stay in India.
