Eight days ago Gyananda Phulli tried to throw her four year old son from their fourth floor flat at Welfare Society, Annie Besant Road, Worli. She was stopped at the last minute by her neighbour Anita Sasane. This was the only clue to Phulli's disturbed state of mind. But her family chose to ignore the warning signs. On Thursday night, the 23-year-old once again threw down her son in a fit of rage and this time little Rishikesh was not so lucky.Neighbours say she frequently fought with her husband and othersEarly Saturday morning little Rishikesh who had been admitted to KEM hospital with severe concussion and multiple fractures succumbed to his injuries. Police say the 23 year old who has since been arrested suffered bouts of rage on account of her turbulent relationship with her husband, a peon at the MLA hostel at CST. The two had married five years ago against their parents’ wishes, so they did not have an extended support system. Their son was often the point of argument and Gyananda, who is said to be an alcoholic, would threaten to harm him if Ramesh did not mend his ways. Afraid that the child might come to harm, their neighbour Anita Sasane had actually taken the child away and handed him over to another family that lived on the ground floor. However, on Thursday, Gyanada brought the child back. The same night, she and her husband fought again, and this time she threw the child from the floor. Manisha Salunkhe, a 29-year-old woman who lives in the adjacent flat and who informed the police, said, “Gyanada had an alcohol problem and used to often beat up the child after getting drunk.

Gyanada often used to get into fights with neighbours too. She even picked fights with me.”“Initially we booked her for causing grievous injuries to her son, but we did not arrest her as she was not well and in a state of shock. Now the charge has been converted to that of murder,” said Senior Inspector Bharat Worlikar of Worli police station.

"The hand that rocks the craddle, cracks the skull."

Is this the spirit of motherhood? I know for sure that this lady has killed her motherhood long back even before she killed her child. It just very frightening to think of the act being done by a mother so let us all attribute it to her mental condition...that may give us solace...atleast me.
