Dr. Swati Shetty, a 24-year-old dentist, died in her sleep after experiencing severe headaches. Dr. Shetty, the daughter of prominent RSS leader Ramanna Shetty Alvarabettu, had recently completed her dentistry degree at A J Hospital in Mangaluru and was set to begin her professional career at a clinic in Pandeshwara.
The unfortunate incident occurred on the night of Monday, April 16, at Dr. Shetty's PG accommodation in Pandeshwara. She had spoken to her parents on the phone that evening after leaving her family's Alvarabettu house, explaining her severe headache before cutting the call. Her roommate, noticing her condition of not responding the next morning, immediately looked for medical assistance. Despite the quick efforts to transport her to Wenlock Hospital, it was already too late.
The sudden death of Dr. Shetty shocked her family, especially her brother and parents. Plans for her upcoming wedding, scheduled before the end of the year, have now been tragically disrupted.
The news of Dr. Shetty's passing has led to an outpouring of condolences from various sections. RSS leaders, along with BJP district president Sathish Kumpala, Assembly Speaker U T Khader, and other officials, have expressed their sympathies to the mourning family.
The exact cause of Dr. Shetty's sudden death remains unclear. While reports indicate that she had been suffering from a severe headache, there were no prior indications of any serious health issues. Medical experts are likely to conduct further investigations to determine the underlying cause.
This unexpected loss serves as an important reminder of life's unpredictability and the importance of valuing each moment. The medical community and Dr. Swati Shetty's family both feel saddened by the sudden collapse of her bright dental career.
Her friends, colleagues, and well-wishers come together to offer their support and condolences to the bereaved family.
