A group of Muslim youth on Friday performed the final rites of a 10-year-old girl who died accidentally in Belagavi.
Vidyasri Hegde, 10, had fallen from the roof of her house where she had gone to pluck flowers at Veerabhadreshwar Nagar on Thursday.
Due to financial constraints, her mother could not pay her hospital fees. Her neighbours, including Babajan Matawale, city corporation member, and Riyaz Killedar admitted the child to KLE society’s Prabhakar Kore Hospital. However, she died on Friday. The neighbours brought the body from the hospital and buried it as per Hindu rituals in the Sadashiv Nagar burial ground.
