The incident took place at around 9:30 am in Sunshine Co-operative Housing Society in the Tulshetpada area of Bhandup West, Mumbai. The 26-year-old woman, identified as Pratiksha Hivrale, reportedly jumped from a window on the 10th floor of the building.
Instead of falling directly to the ground, she became trapped in the branches of a tree below. A thick branch became lodged in her leg, leaving her suspended at a height of about 20 feet and causing serious injuries.
After receiving information about the incident, local people alerted the police and Mumbai Fire Brigade. Fire brigade personnel reached the spot and began a rescue operation to bring the woman down safely.
The rescue team first used an angled ladder to reach the woman. After assessing the situation, firefighters decided to carefully cut the tree branch that was trapped in her leg.
The team used an electric saw to cut the branch while taking precautions to avoid causing further injury. After the branch was removed, the woman was placed on a stretcher and lowered gradually with the help of ropes.
The rescue operation was carried out with caution because the injured woman was trapped in the tree at a height of about 20 feet.
After being rescued, Pratiksha Hivrale was taken to Sion Hospital for treatment. According to the initial information, her condition was reported to be serious.
Doctors are treating her injuries and monitoring her condition. Further medical information is awaited.
According to the information available, Pratiksha Hivrale, 26, had married about four months ago.
The reason why she jumped from the 10th floor has not been established. The circumstances surrounding the incident are being examined, and the available information does not establish any specific reason for her action.
The presence of the tree prevented her from falling directly to the ground, although she sustained serious injuries after becoming trapped in its branches. The fire brigade's rescue operation enabled her to be brought down and taken to hospital for medical treatment.
