Mother of all frauds

Hello folks. We all know that India is and was an impoverished country. The world has frauds and charlatans. India too has them. But of a different kind. Friends, previously I used to live in the city of Patna in North India. It is the capital of the state of Bihar. It has an old British era railway station which is confronted by a Hindu temple. A line of beggars usually sit in the railway stations premises in front of the temple. One female beggar was unique. She always managed to get hold of a dead human body which she would lay on the stations premises, cover it with a white shroud, light incense sticks around it, and wail over it claiming it was her dead relative and that she didn't have money to cremate it. She was the mother of all frauds. On investigation, I realized she was getting her supply of dead bodies from the crematorium in the Ganges. Hindu's cremate their dead by burning the body on the banks of the river which is regarded as holy. But impoverished people cannot afford firewood so they simply throw the dead thing in the river hoping that fishes will devour them. These bodies are fished out by people who sell them to students in the various Medical colleges of India. Most are exported to Medical colleges in the US and the UK. This beggar woman was buying these dead bodies and bringing them to the railway station to wail and beg over them. Naturally it attracted the author in me so I spun a fictional story around her and the other beggars who were affected by her fraudulent activities. Folks, this is the book. Read it and you will vomit with disgust. It is a disgusting story. But friends I wrote it because I had to. It was unique. Here's the link.
