Assam Girl Death | Assam Dancer, 20, Found Dead Near Andhra Railway Track, Cremated

The 20-year-old tribal woman from the Bonda area on the outskirts of Guwahati, whose body was found near a railway track in the Srikakulam district of Andra Pradesh on October 7, reached her home on Saturday evening and was cremated. While the Andhra Pradesh Police Special Investigation Team (SIT), along with forensic experts, a clues team, dog squads and drone teams, is investigating the death of this dancer from Assam who had gone there for a performance, the family has claimed that she was murdered. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has earlier this week written to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and Union Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw urging their intervention and impartial and time-bound investigation into the circumstances surrounding the 20-year-old's death. The woman had arrived in Visakhapatnam on August 16 as part of a 10-member dance group comprising two men and eight women.
