It was her first day of school and four-year-old Sonu was excited to share it with her mother. But the day that was supposed to be a day of celebration turned out to be day of mourning for girl, who was in a state of shock after seeing her mother killed in road accident in Pune.

The deceased, identified as Nisha Nilesh Wadekar (32), a resident of Yashwantnagar near Talegaon Station in Pune, was knocked down by a dumper at Talegoan-Chakan road on Monday around 10.30 am while on her way to pick up her daughter from school.
