Bhavnagar: Every girl and even boys, dream of having a dream wedding with the choice of partner that would be their strength, their happiness and their world. When that dream gets shattered, then that individual might stop even dreaming for any better as human psychology usually starts working in a negative manner post disappointment. A very sad incident took place in Gujarat wherein, a very young nurse took a drastic step by taking her own life when she didn’t get the choice of partner she might have been wishing for.

A 22-year-old nurse ended her life by hanging after being unhappy with the groom chosen for her by her parents. The nurse allegedly committed suicide inside the state government-run Sir Takhtasinhji General Hospital in Gujarat’s Bhavnagar.

The nurse identified as Ami Makwana took the extreme step to protest her proposed marriage to a man chosen by her parents. Ami was working as a contractual nurse in the hospital and had joined the institution just one-and-a-half months ago.

Hospital workers found Ami hanging by a rope tied to the ceiling fan in the hospital store room, police said.

"The storeroom was also being used as a staffroom by members of the hospital. There is a washroom inside and a few chairs were placed there. When the guard went to the room at around 8:30 pm on Sunday, he found its door bolted from inside. He alerted the hospital administration, who then broke the glass panels on the door open and found the nurse hanging,” Hathising Gohil, police sub-inspector (PSI), Neelambaug, was quoted as saying by The Indian Express.

Ami's duty ended around 8 at night. A suicide note was found near the body, purportedly written by the nurse, as the police suspect.

Meanwhile, the police have registered a case of accidental death. Further investigations are underway to ascertain the main cause behind the nurse's death.
