While exploring the site, officials reported that Kamdar slipped and fell into a gorge while allegedly filming Instagram videos.

The rescuer told the outlet that Kamdar was responsive when she was retrieved and put on a ventilator while en route to the hospital. She was declared dead on arrival at the hospital.
