The marigold flower garland adorning the framed photograph of Vijaymala Vijay Kadam kept in one corner of the tiny room next to the television set has dried. The yellow flowers are now darkish brown. About 10 days ago, Kadam died due to excessive bleeding and a reported botched-up hysterectomy surgery during childbirth. It was her 1.5-day-old child, a boy, who died first.
