Answer:
Bholi's face was affected with small-pox.
Step-by-step explanation:
The short story "Bholi" by K A Abbas revolves around the story of a young girl named Sulekha also known as Bholi. She suffered from smallpox from the age of two which affected her whole body except her eyes. But that did not deter her from becoming a sensible, educated woman.
She suffered from smallpox, leaving her disfigured. Moreover, she stammered a lot and was only able to speak clearly at the age of five. But all that did not deter her. She went to the village's school and get an education. So, when her parents arranged a marriage for her to a much older man named Bishamber, and the man demanded more money in "exchange" for her "deformity", she refused to let that ruin her life. Rather, she decided to remain single and become a teacher and help others instead of becoming a burden for her parents.
