The sad case of Anjali Gupta.

It was depressing to hear about the tragic death of Anjali Gupta, an ex-officer of the Indian Air Force. She'd shot to fame when she was cashiered from the service a few years back. Ironically, she'd accused a few of her superiors in the IAF of sexually harassing her, went through a Court of Inquiry which culminated in Court Martial proceedings being instituted against her and saw her eventual dismissal from service.

Throughout her difficult days, from the account of her general conduct by the media, I'd surmised her to be a strong young lady. Yet, her untimely end and that too by suicide, paints her to be insecure as well as vulnerable.

Cupid has neither eyes nor ears in matters of love, it's said. Love just happens and hence, her entanglement with a married guy does not have to be discussed or criticised. But what saddens me is that she had decided to end her life in this manner. Wonder what prompted her to take such an extreme step and it's hoped that the entire story will come out during the course of the police investigations.

RIP young lady!
