New Delhi: The recent discovery of seven bodies within a car in Panchkula, Haryana, has cast a pall of grief over the community and sparked renewed interest in the family’s history. A neighbour, Rajkumari Nautiyal, residing in Dehradun, Uttarakhand, has provided poignant insights into the life of the Misra family before their tragic demise.
Nautiyal, who knew the family for several years, recounted their time in Dehradun. They lived in the city for approximately three to four years, residing near a lemon seller’s stall, according to her account. She described them as a seemingly ordinary family, busy with their daily lives and without any outwardly visible signs of distress. Their interactions with Nautiyal were amicable, with no hint of personal problems.
The family moved to Panchkula around Holi, about a year and a half before the tragedy. Nautiyal attempted to stay in touch, but her calls went unanswered, raising concerns that something was amiss. This lack of contact, coupled with the news of their deaths, has left Nautiyal deeply saddened and perplexed.
The family consisted of parents, their son and daughter-in-law, and three grandchildren. The exact circumstances leading to their deaths are yet to be fully ascertained by authorities. The investigation is ongoing. Nautiyal’s account paints a picture of a family that, from the outside, appeared to be navigating life without significant hardship. This revelation adds another layer of complexity to the already heartbreaking incident. The quiet departure and lack of communication leave many unanswered questions surrounding this tragic event.
