Veda Krishnamurthy dedicates an emotional note to her late mother and sister
India is fighting a tough battle with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The country is daily reporting over four lakh positive coronavirus cases while thousands are losing their lives. Many people have lost their loved ones to Covid-19 and that has left them completely shattered.
One among them is India’s women cricket team player. Veda’s family has been hit hard by the deadly virus as over the past few months she has lost both her mother and sister. Veda’s mother left her on April 23 and her sister Vatsala Shivakumar, who was admitted to a hospital in Chikmagalur, Karnataka, breathed her last only two weeks later.
