Rinky Chakma, the titleholder of Femina Miss India Tripura 2017, tragically passed away at the age of 29 following her brave battle against cancer. Initially diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022, she underwent surgery to remove the tumour. Despite undergoing chemotherapy, the cancer spread to her lungs and eventually to her brain, causing a brain tumour. Despite her courageous fight, her health declined, and she could not continue chemotherapy. The official Instagram account of the pageant confirmed her demise, honouring her for her grace and determination.
