As per the GoAir officials, they are saying that the girl was anaemic, and the father had not disclosed this, else the girl would not have been allowed to the board the flight itself. The girl has haemoglobin of below 8 gm- 2.5grams and that’s the reason she had a cardiac arrest in the middle of the flight. They were on their way to Mumbai for treatment of the same, as per the GoAir officials.
