As it was raining heavily, Suguna, who tried to travel by auto rickshaw, did not get any vehicle. She then rode on the motor bike driven by her younger brother. When moving on the bike, she was holding an umbrella to protect herself from rain. Because of the force of the wind, her umbrella flew away, and because of its force, Suguna fell down from the bike, and lost her life instantly.
