Among all the participants , Bonti Chutia from Dekajan area of Bokohola in Jorhat district too cheered every moment her being with the young leader.

Bonti hardly realized that her participation in Rahul Gandhi's meet and spending some quality time here would be a good enough reason for her death.

Bizarre , yet a fact that when Bonti reached home at around eight to nine, she entered into a heat exchange with her husband who objected to her coming late and even attending Rahul's meet.

The fight soon took a serious turn and eventually Bonti's husband set her on fire, though the reason for the fire is yet to be ascertained.

With more than 80 pc burns, Bonti was admitted to Jorhat Medical College Hosptial and her husband with 60 pc burns.
