Wage earner Sambaru is a father of two children—a 10-year old daughter and a 6-year old son.
When her condition turned critical, Sambaru took her to Bongaigaon Civil Hospital, which is 15 km from Dewangaon. But doctors in the hospital referred her to Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed Medical College and Hospital in Barpeta, which is about 72 km from Bongaigaon, after considering her health condition.
Instead of taking her to Barpeta, Sambaru brought her back to Dewangaon home. On Friday noon when Binita died, Sambru buried her in the night at the nearby crematorium without informing anybody.
