It was at the time of the accident that Salikram’s daughter Rajkesar Chowdhary met Ashish Gautam of Mungari village. Both started talking on the phone. Rajkesar was the eldest of four sisters and two brothers. After the death of her father, she became the support of the family through the sewing-weaving training center. Despite being the eldest, she remained unmarried to fulfill the responsibility and got the younger three sisters married.
Love affair deepens with Ashish
During this, her love affair with Ashish deepened. Ashish’s sister got married in the village of Rajkesar. Even on this pretext he would come there and both would stay together for many hours. Brother Krishna told that Ashish had bought land near Karchhana tehsil after taking Rs 10 lakh from Rajkesar. Was building a house on the same land. Meanwhile, on May 24 at 6 pm, Rajkesar, who had left the house, did not return till night, so a search was started. He didn’t know anything. The mobile phone was also switched off.
Ashish was also engaged in the search
Ashish would also be engaged in the search with the family. On May 30, a missing complaint was lodged at Karchhana police station. Even after this nothing was being known about Rajkesar.

Made a grave in the house where we lived together
Ashish told that Rajkesar would often stay with him at night when they were in a love affair for seven years. It was he who had given Rs 10 lakh and asked to buy land and build a house. It was a dream that she would spend life in this house with Ashish. But now Ashish’s family had started asking him to keep distance from Rajkesar. His marriage was also fixed with another girl. When Rajkesar started opposing the marriage, Ashish kept falsely comforting her that he would marry her only. But deep inside, Ashish was determined to get Rajkesar out of the way.
