Pinky Mali, a flight attendant from Worli in Mumbai, lost her life in the plane crash at Baramati in which Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar was also on board. Her grieving father, Shivkumar Mali, on Wednesday said his only wish was to receive his daughter’s body so that he could perform her last rites.
Speaking to Media, Shivkumar Mali said he last spoke to his daughter a day before the tragic
incident.
“Yesterday, she called me and said, ‘Papa, I am going to Baramati with Ajit Pawar, and from there I will go to Nanded.’ That was all we discussed yesterday. For some time, she had been travelling continuously with Ajit Pawar on his recent trips,” he said.
Expressing his anguish, he added, “I have lost my daughter. I do not know what exactly happened, as I have no technical knowledge about such incidents. I am completely shattered.”
