NAGPUR: A seven-year-old girl flying on a Lucknow-Mumbai GoAir flight with her father was declared brought dead at Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) after being rushed there following an emergency landing at 7.25am on Tuesday at Nagpur airport.
\nAyushi Punvasi Prajapati, resident of Seheri Khat, Siddarth Nagar, Chaffa in Uttar Pradesh, and her father were on GoAir flight G8307. Officials said they appeared financially backward and the father could barely explain the girl\u2019s condition.
\nThe exact cause of Ayushi\u2019s death is not known. GMCH officials said the viscera samples have been preserved to ascertain the cause of death. Prima facie, they said it appears she collapsed due to cardiac arrest triggered by high altitude.
\n\u201cShe was anaemic. The father had not disclosed this, else he would not have been allowed to board the flight. Patients below 8 to 10gms of haemoglobin are not permitted air journeys. Ayushi\u2019s records show she had just 2.5gms. They were going for her treatment to Mumbai,\u201d officials said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
