Jeddah/Kalaburgi, Oct 22: Nearly three weeks after he died of cardiac arrest in Kingdom Saudi Arabia, the body of Shaikapur Gudappa Hanumantaraya, an expatriate worker from Kumbada village of Jevargi Taluk in Kalaburagi district of Karnataka, was repatriated to his hometown, where the aggrieved family members conducted his final rites.

The family members have thanked the local leaders of Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) and activists of Indian Social Forum (ISF), Jeddah for their selfless efforts in repatriating the body after the elected representatives from Kalaburgi refused to intervene in the case.

Hanumantaraya breathed his last at a private hospital in the Arab kingdom on September 27, 2018. The helpless family members had requested help from district administration, local Member of Parliament, to bring the mortal remains to India for the final rites, but in vain.  

The local leaders of SDPI, who came to know the through the media, met the aggrieved family at their residence and assured them to extend all possible help to bring the mortal remains to the hometown. They then contacted the activists of ISF, Jeddah unit and explained the gravity of the issue.

The Karnataka state unit president of ISF, Jeddah, Mohammed Ali Muloor along with Haris Goodinabali took up the matter with priority and acted on it. They visited hospital to collect information and approached to the company in Jeddah where the deceased had worked and started to process documents for repatriation.

Since there was no relative of the deceased in Jeddah, Kavitha wife of deceased had to issue power of attorney in the name of Mohammed Ali to complete the formalities to dispatch the dead body to India. Completing all formalities, the body of Hanumantaraya was dispatched on October 15 and it reached hometown very next day.

SDPI Kalaburgi district arranged the transportation of dead body from Hyderabad International Airport to Jevargi through the district administration. Local leaders of SDPI were present to receive the body.

Mumbai, Jun 14: Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput committed suicide on Sunday, leaving all his fans and the industry in shock. While the reason behind him taking up the extreme step is still not clear, a look into Sushant’s social media feed suggests that things were not well for him for quite some time.

Sushant had been inactive on Twitter since months. His last tweet was on December 27, 2019. Since then, he did not even reply to any one on Twitter. Same is the case with his Facebook account as the last post on his timeline was on the same date. Interestingly, Sushant's Twitter cover picture is the popular painting - 'Starry Night', by Van Gogh, who had also reportedly committed suicide in 1890.

On Instagram, the young actor had last posted on June 3. It was a collage picture of him and his mother along with a cryptic caption that read, “Blurred past evaporating from teardrops Unending dreams carving an arc of smile And a fleeting life, negotiating between the two...#माँ”.

Was Sushant’s inactivity on Twitter, Facebook and his last cryptic post on Instagram a signal that the actor was having a tough time? Well, may be it will remain a mystery forever.
