Some of the opinions here just make no sense.
So Ratan is Ganga's unwanted husband - who she did not choose. Her aunt chose this rishta to get rid of the unwanted orphan niece. And Ganga has suffered all these years in that house like a slave. Getting beaten, burnt, raped, and had a baby who she has seen was kept hungry n crying coz she was made to finish her work before she cud attend the the baby.
She has heard only abuses from that entire household and she has seen her kid too get abused and called names when Ratan's new wife was expecting. Ganga has HEARD that Rat planned to kill her once his son was born.
After all this - that poor thing has planned time n again to make an escape and just run for her life. She has never had the luxury to first plan and fund a bank account and a fix a safe place with adequate security that she could safely go to.
And then - when she thought she could run away - she just ran. And for all her efforts got almost killed when Rat caught up with her. She has SEEN her son abused.
How can a mother give up her child ??
That is not possible. It is not human to do so. You do not let a murderer have your kid so you can live. She'd rather die than allow that. If those of you who think she shud just give Mannu up - were real mothers - you would not think so.

Now to why DS is helping Ganga. Dadisa too was a helpless woman who had no family n friends she cud turn to for help and she had not one but two small kids to take care off. She too had run off in the middle of the night from her molester Brother-in-law and escaped and brought up her kids.
Dadisa sees her own strength and spirit and her own situation in Ganga. That is why Dadisa has always been so fond and so protective of her. Anandi was just a child bride with an indomitable spirit. But Ganga has the spirit and the desperation n the danger. Dadisa can see why Ganga needs to be saved and Dadisa is thinking about all their safety. If they could just convince she's not here - Rat might leave them alone and go off to look elsewhere and in the mean time they cud call for help. That's her plan.
Cowards hand over the helpless to the butchers. Not the brave. And Dadisa is brave and has raised brave sons.
