Details of the Tragic Incident
Lalita Kumari, daughter of Kailash Ganjhu, consumed pesticide at her residence in what appears to be a desperate act. Family members immediately rushed her to a nearby health center upon discovering the situation. However, her condition deteriorated rapidly during the journey to the hospital.
