My Dear friend ,

For Getting the Path above the source node here is the simple step ..
The below table illustrates it :-

During traversing the in BFS way from the root until we find the
source node .

Current Node           =   a | b c | d e
Distance from Root  =   0 | 1 1 | 2 2
PrevNode                =  -- | a a  | b b


After u reach the source node e backtrack to it's previous node taking
a counter to record the distance from the source node backward until
root node is reached or else K is reached .

For K=1 , source node e we can get the node b (6) ..... Now do u see
the process to traceback ..

Here are two case either the value of k is reached on or before
hitting the root node ..
Let's take on the cases :-

For case 1 :- When value k is reached on or before reaching the root
node . Here we get the path..
For case 2 :- When the value of k of not reached .. suppose we get a
distance (d) from the source node to the root. Now to need to find the
distance of (k-d) from the root node , which is the same as the BFS
approach .

Hopefully Mr Ankuj , this will clear the air ...
