Kundapur, Mar 25: In a tragic incident, a four-year-old girl died after a tree fell on her in a sudden storm at Halliberu, Madhyakeri in Kollur here on Wednesday March 25.

Sangeeta Naik (4), daughter of Vasu and Gayatri Naik, residents of Madhyakeri, was playing under the tree, when it fell on her. A grievously injured Sangeeta was rushed to hospital, but breathed her last on the way.

Vasu and Gayatri, both coolie workers, were at home when the incident took place. It is said that Sangeeta was playing under a moringa tree in the front yard at around 12.30 pm. All of a sudden, a stormy winds started to blow and the tree got uprooted and Sangeeta got trapped under it. She sustained serious injuries on her hands, legs and chest.

Sangeeta was immediately rushed to Kundapur government hospital, but Madhyakeri being an extremely rural area, it took nearly two hours to reach the hospital. The time lost in transit proved costly and she was pronounced brought dead by the doctors in the hospital.

Sangeeta leaves behind her parents, grandparents and a brother aged three years.

Local leader Ramesh Ganiga visited the hospital and expressed sympathies to the bereaved family.

    Only those who dont believe god and life hereafter will think like you. True believer never agree with your comment. Just imagine the life when everybody is wealthy?!! How much your needs you do by yourself? I mean if everybody is having money as you wish, there will be no farmers, no fishermen, no all those labours from whom you are taking benifit. THen people will kill each other for food..life will come to halt...THats y i told our creator who created everything from nothing is master and all praise to him only not for his creations..may god bless you..

    So dear brother do u think money is everything?All rich are happy in this world? Quran says these dissimilarity of wealth, health is for the test in this world. One who has wealth will be accountable for the charity and he has to pass this paper. And who has no wealth will get full marks in charity and definitely will thank god in life here after for not having wealth. Almighty created everything and everyone in a balanced format. May God bless you. Take care

    Ask anyone including yourself and the answer will be: I rather be rich and unhappy, than be poor and unhappy. Let us not be hypocrites: Money is very important for all of us.
