    In Udupi & D. K. There are so many such wells without safety wall. Hence people know about it no body falls into it. Mamatha too might have known about this well. Any one has seen her falling into well? If yes why no body rescued her. If not sure it's a murder, she will not br drowned with prior knowledge of well. Need proper investigation.

    It is the negligence of the person who own the well. It is his responsibility to safe guard the well. He is responsible for the death and he is guilty of murder.

    Irresponsibility of people living around this area. There have been number of incidents because of these open well and open holes in the ground. People just don't care until some in their family dies. I don't understand this.

    Another case of unnatural death. God only knows how their parents face this. bringing up children to this age and then suddenly destiny snatching them is really hard to accept. so many cases of death due to falling in open pits have come up in recent times still our general public remains ignorant. really feel bad for the girls parents.

    Dear Mamatha, we have lost a young budding college graduate who had high hopes to make a living for herself and her family. May God give the strength and courage to bare the loss of their dear Angel. May her soul RIP. It is hard to digest the loss but only our beloved God can help during this difficult times. I would advice that all open wells should have a protective wall around to avoid such deaths and mishaps.
