Later in the morning, we went to the Metro train inauguration. She was fine that time too. At 3 pm, we had lunch at a restaurant and she was absolutely fine. It very unfortunate that she is not there any more,” Gangambike said.
“All these days there were no symptoms. In fact , I would get fatigued sometimes and she would advise me to pack fruits or dry fruits from home. She was like an elder sister to me,” she added.
