Quotes
Arati Baruah Lahon
Hrishita Lahon’s mother
“She used to commute every day from her flat in Delhi to Noida. Usually, she travelled by metro, but on that particular day, she had to take a Rapido. The incident happened just about five minutes away from where she lived.”

“The Rapido driver was also injured, so we bear no ill will towards him either. We do not wish harm upon anyone. What happened is deeply tragic and unfortunate.”
