Her last rites were solemnized at a crematorium in Ahmedabad's Thaltej area on Monday, attended by family members, including Amit Shah, who arrived from Mumbai via plane with her body.

The untimely demise led Amit Shah to cancel two public events slated for the day in Gujarat. These events were originally scheduled at Banas Dairy in Deodar, Banaskantha district, and Rashtriya Raksha University in Gandhinagar.

Amit Shah, who was supposed to inaugurate various projects and products of Banas Dairy and address a public gathering in the morning, had to forgo these commitments due to the mourning within his family.

Ajay Patel, Chairman of Gujarat State Cooperative Bank Limited, expressed that Shah's absence at the Banaskantha event was due to the tragic loss of his elder sister, emphasizing the personal grief that led to the cancellation of the scheduled public appearances.
