Mumbai-based content creator Aanvi Kamdar, 27, has died after falling into a 90m-deep gorge in the Raigad district of Maharashtra, India .Ms Kamdar runs the travel and lifestyle Instagram account @theglocaljournal, sharing her content with more than 270,000 followers.
She was with seven friends at the location and shooting a reel when she slipped and fell to her death on July 16, Hindustan Times quoted a Mangaon police station official as saying. It was also the day when she uploaded a list of places to visit, including"Bhandardara: Near Igatpuri, beautiful waterfalls" under Maharashtra.
“As soon as we reached the spot, we realised that the girl had fallen nearly 300-350 feet . Even after reaching her, it was difficult to get her up, as she was injured and it was raining heavily. So we decided to get her out using a vertical pulley,” a rescuer told NDTV.Ms Kamdar was eventually pulled out of the gorge after six hours. She sustained serious injuries and died in hospital.
Indian authorities have urged tourists to be extra-cautious when visiting waterfalls during the monsoon season.
