Jyoti possibly didn't realise that the school bags she was carrying were jutting out from the side. "The tram that was coming from behind us hit the bags on Jyoti's shoulder. "Fortunately, she didn't go under the tram like her mother." Jyoti and Sakshi were taken to Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan in a police ambulance, where the homemaker died around 2pm. Calcutta has 25 tram routes and route 24 - Ballygunge to Tollygunge - isn't a very busy one.
