00:00This woman from Assam was found dead.
00:02But was India too busy with Raja Ragu Vanshi to notice?
00:05Assam's Rasmita Hojai went missing in Delhi after appearing for an exam.
00:09Days later, her body was found near the Ganga River in Uttarakhand.
00:12Rasmita, who had completed her engineering and was preparing for the Assam Public Service Commission exams in Guwahati,
00:18had travelled to Delhi on June 4, 2025 to appear for the Railway Recruitment Board examination.
00:24But she never made it back.
00:25Two men last seen with her claimed she had been swept away by a river.
00:28That's it. That's the story her family was given.
00:31No nationwide manhunt, no primetime coverage, barely a whisper in the national media.
00:36Only local news outlets and a few concerned voices tried to raise the alarm.
00:40Why? Because India was too busy with the Raja Sunam case in Meghalaya.
00:44A man murdered, a wife allegedly plotting with three accomplices.
00:48Meanwhile, Rasmita, a northeastern woman, was reduced to a paragraph, if that.
00:52Would things have been different if Rasmita had been from a different state?
00:55If a story had a viral twist, if a name fit better in a headline?
