    Dr. Hemalata Shetty may your soul rest in eternal peace and give comfort and solace to your husband Dayanand Shetty and other family members. It is a shocking news and a big loss to the society as one who is a savior to others lost her own life. I hope for a speedy recovery of Dayanand. The driver should arrested and punished to the maximum extent. There are so many motor bike/lorry/bus accidents everyday and night. This accident happened in the afternoon and it was visible to see the road.
