Topper From UP, Studying In US, Dies In Accident After Alleged Harassment
A 20-year-old woman from western Uttar Pradesh, who overcame many odds to secure 98 per cent marks in her class 12 board exams in 2018 and then went on to receive a full-time scholarship at a prestigious university in the United States, was killed on Monday in a road accident in the state's Bulandshahr district. The family of Sudeeksha Bhati, the girl who died, has alleged that she met with an accident because two men on a bike chased the 20-year-old - who was on a separate motorcycle with her uncle - and tried to harass her. The district administration, however, has said the officials probing the case have found no proof of harassment.

As per news report of NDTV, the student from Bulandshahr had returned from the US in June amid the novel coronavirus pandemic and was scheduled to go back in August. Two years back, she had made it to the prestigious Babson College in Massachusetts after she topped her district in CBSE class 12 exams in the Humanities stream. On Monday, she and her uncle left on a bike from their village in UP's Gautam Budh Nagar and were on their way to a relative's place in Bulandshahr's Sikandrabad to get some academic documents from a school, when the incident took place, according to the family.
