When Lalloo completed 25 years of his rule over Bihar, he wanted a special postage stamp issued,
with his picture on it. He so instructed Rabridevi, stressing that it should be of international
quality. The stamps were duly released, and Lalloo was pleased. But within a couple of days of
release of the stamp, he began hearing complaints that the stamp was not sticking properly, and
became furious. He called Rabri and ordered her to investigate the matter. Rabri checked the
matter out at several post offices, and then reported on the problem to Lalloprasad.
She said: "The stamp is really of international quality. The problem is, our Biharis are spitting
on the wrong side"
