Swarnalata's husband, Amal Kanti Josh, remains the only living survivor of Sain bari massacre. Since May 2011, chief minister Mamata Banerjee has provided armed security outside her home. Swarnalata, her husband, and son used to attend Kolkata's annual 21 July programme.
Swarnalata Josh (75), who was close to chief minister Mamata Banerjee, passed away after a long illness in her residence in Burdwan town on Sunday. Due to a brain stroke she was bedridden for the last few years.
With her death the Sainbari massacre incident has been revisited after almost 55 years.
On 17 March 1970, during the naming ceremony of her son Amrit Josh, the goons of CPM allegedly stormed into the house and killed her several brothers.
