Her marksheet is a very grim reminder of a life short lived

COIMBATORE: It was one picture that M Niranjana would have loved to click. Celebrations on her SBOA Matriculation school campus when the plus two results were out. But Niranjana is no more and her plus two marks poignantly remain on the display board in her school.
Niranjana who died in a road accident in Kulu Manali recently, scored 1,081 marks out of 1,200.And she scored the highest in English with 184 marks.
"We knew she would score high. She was confident and full of life. But she is no more. And we don't know how we will come to terms with this loss," laments her father P Manivannan, general manager of Pricol Technologies Ltd. Niranjana wanted to pursue Visual Communications in Loyola College. With a high score in plus two, she would have got the seat, says her father.
A photography and trekking buff, Niranjana was always armed with her DSLR camera and it was her passion that took her life too. She had set out on a trek to the Himalayas to capture the picturesque snow-clad mountains. But the bus in which she travelled was hit by a truck on a hair pin bend near Kulu Manali, killing her on the spot on May 7. Before she left for Kulu Manali, she had asked her father for her last gift, a memory card for her camera.
