Sundari Planibel is one fortunate woman. Not only did she accidentally give away her 100-gram gold ornaments worth about Rs 5 lakh to a beggar, she got them back the same day, thanks to Dindoshi police. On Wednesday, she was to mortgage them to repay loans taken for her daughter&rsquo;s wedding.

<img src="http://images.mid-day.com/images/images/2022/jun/Beggar-gold-3_e.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" />As the vada pav was stale and hard, the beggar woman who was going somewhere in a rickshaw, threw the bag onto a pile of garbage on the road
