Chennai: In a cruel twist of fate, 22-year-old techie Swathi fell victim to the twin bomb blasts on the Bangalore-Guwahati train just two months before she was to tie the nuptial knot.


Swathi, an engineering graduate from a

collegein Hyderabad, had joined a leading software firm in Bangalore only four months ago and was returning home with a friend when the blasts claimed her.

When the news of Swathi's tragic death reached her family in Guntur, her parents and relatives were inconsolable.

"She was to come home today. But now only her body is coming", Swathi's grief-stricken grandmother Rajalakshmi said.

"She was to marry in another two months," a wailing Rajalakshmi said.
