Now, Multi-Storey Grave For Cadavers In Bihar Town 
Multi-storey apartments, they say, are a solution to the problem of space crunch for residents in cities. In Bihar’s Bettiah town, district HQ of West Champaran, cadavers are faced with a similar problem so much so that multi-storey structures are now coming up for the dead to be interred in the town’s only graveyard meant for Roman Catholic Christians.
Parish priest and Bettiah diocese’s vicar-general Father Lawrence Paxchal attributes the rather unusual development to two factors. One, the locals prefer to be laid to rest near their ancestors’ graves. And two, the graveyard has limited space with virtually no scope for expansion as dense settlements have come up all around it. He, however, said there’s still empty space available for separate graves on the eastern side of the graveyard. But this luxury would soon become a thing of past. For, Bettiah, where Christians settled over 350 years back, is home to 450 and odd Roman Catholic families even though many from the community migrated to other places in the past. With 15 to 17 deaths taking place every year, it can be anybody’s guess how long would it take to fill the empty space. The local Christians would then be left with two options: either to have more multi-storey graves or to look for a new graveyard. “Those who selected the graveyard site on the outskirts of the town some 250 years ago would not have imagined that rapid urbanization would render even this once-secluded place a densely-populated locality,” said a local, preferring anonymity.
