A 34-year-old Gujarat BJP leader was found dead in her house in Surat’s Bhimrad area, a police official said on Monday (December 2, 2024).
Dipika Patel, president of the BJP women’s wing in ward 30 of Surat city, was found dead in her bedroom at around 2 p.m. on Sunday (December 1, 2024), Deputy Commissioner of Police Vijaysinh Gurjar said.
“ …she had called ward 30 corporator Chirag Solanki, whom she considered as a brother. Patel told Solanki she was in stress… Solanki rushed to Patel’s house and broke open the door of her bedroom after there was no response from inside despite repeated knocks,” he told reporters.
“While Patel’s husband was away, her children were present when Solanki reached the deceased’s house. He took Patel to new civil hospital where doctors declared her dead on arrival. Her mobile phone has been sent for forensic analysis as part of the probe,” Mr. Gurjar added.
