Jyotika
Khati, the 24-year-old resident of Darjeeling who was being treated for
cancer at the Tata Cancer Foundation in Mumbai, passed away this
morning at 11:30am. Hospital sources said Jyotika suffered two heart
attacks on Monday and went into coma from which she never woke up. A lot
of support came Jyotika’s way from Darjeeling residents, but the most
significant ones were from cricketer Yuvraj Singh’s YouWeCan foundation
and marathon team Run with Roshni.
“I have no words to say. Sad and
shocked. I was not allowed to meet Jyotika when I last went to the
hospital. I was hoping she would recover," said Team Run with Roshni
founder Roshni Rai.
Bishal Lama of the Gorkha Youths of
Mumbai was equally distraught. He was in the hospital till 3am this
morning. “We are saddened by the loss of our ‘cheli’. Jyotika has left
behind Evna (her 4-year-old daughter) and we must take care of her. I
appeal to everyone to pray for the bereaved family.” (HS)
