As per the reports of The Quint, Roli was shot in her head by some unidentified assailants in Noida. After being rushed to AIIMS in Delhi, she was declared brain dead by doctors. After several failed attempts to save the little girl failed, doctors decided to convince Roli’s parents for organ donation.
