A family in Jhansi faced an unfathomable heartbreak as tragedy struck them twice in eerily similar incidents, claiming the lives of their two young daughters over a span of two years.

Shailendra, who operates a street food stall in Duddhi bazaar, Sonbhadra district, lost his one-and-a-half-year-old daughter, Priya, when she accidentally fell into a pot of boiling chickpeas.

This incident is tragically reminiscent of another mishap that occurred two years ago when his elder daughter, Saumya, met the same fate. Both occurrences were confirmed as accidents by police investigations.
