A farewell party of a government employee turned tragic after his ailing wife, for whom he decided to take early retirement, died in front of his eyes on the occasion.

The disturbing video of the incident that took place in Rajasthan’s Kota came to the fore.

The happy scenes and smiling faces were seen all around as both husband and wife were seen garlanded and rose petals were used to decorate the table lying in front.

Little did anyone there know that the merry moments were going to turn tragic with the death of the wife.

Devendra Sandal, the husband who worked as a manager at Central Warehousing Corporation, had decided to retire three years early to take care of his ailing wife, Tina, who was a heart patient.

As people were celebrating the party, Tina tells her husband, “Mujhe chakkar aa rahe hain (I am feeling dizzy)”. He eased her to sit back on the chair and massaged her back.

The husband and others around were heard saying, “Paani la dena, paani (get some water please)”.
