She was rushed to the hospital[10] with serious leg and pelvic injuries, and lost her leg after doctors amputated it to save her life.
She was offered compensation of ₹25,000 (US$360) by the Indian Sports Ministry. Following national outrage, the Minister of State for Youth Affairs and Sports Ajay Maken announced an additional Rs. ₹200,000 (US$2,900) compensation as medical relief, together with a recommendation for a job in the CISF.
