[Assam] Vital statistics of retired Bharat Mataji

[umesh sharma]

seems good improvement. It is strange to see an ancient country like  India that is  Bharat  being called as  retired  at age 60  -- what happened  to  its thousands  of  years of  history  and  Bharat  named  after  King  Bharat since the time of Ashoka thousands of years ago.
