A 19 year old college student in Coimbatore lost her life, ironically during a disaster preparedness training. Reportedly, she was urged by the instructor to jump from the second floor ledge of the building.

When she refused to nudge, the instructor had pushed the girl whose head hit on the ledge below after the fall. The victim Lokeshwari was studying business at Kovai Kalai Magal Arts and Science College. After the fall, the victim was immediately taken to a nearby hospital, but the hospital refused to treat her.

Then Lokeshwari was taken to government hospital  where she died. The disaster preparedness instructor Arumugam has been arrested and charged with causing death due to negligence.
