Rima died hours before her wedding date was scheduled to be finalised this evening at her Fakir Mistry Bagan Lane in the Dasnagar area of Howrah.
Her would-be husband along with his family members were supposed to reach her rented-house to get everything related to their marriage discussed with her parents.
But it would never be finalised when the landlord informed her parents the unexpected shocking news around 4 pm.
Twenty eight year-old Rima was the sole earner in her five-member family. Her father, who used to work at a small factory lost his job after unit closed down.
Her mother could not resist herself and burst into tears soon after she heard the news from her landlord.
“Today, Prabir (would-be husband) along with his family members, was scheduled to come to our residence to finalise the date of their wedding. I told Rima to come back home early. While leaving this afternoon, she laughed and assured me. But she left us forever and won’t come back ever.”
She was a physiotherapist after studying BA for two years at Narashingha Dutta College in Howrah.
“Her father had lost job. She was our only earning member,” Rima’s bereaved mother said.
Virtually shaken after getting the rude shock of his would-be wife death Prabir rushed to her home.
