A veterinary doctor from Latur in Maharashtra, who had been providing help to the flood-affected farmers in Sangli, died of a heart attack on Sunday, an official said.

Narayan Kharolkar, 51, was sleeping in his room in Sangli city when he suffered the heart attack, his post-mortem report said.

"Some blockages were found in his heart. However, he had never suffered an attack in the past. He had been helping the flood-hit farmers in Sangli since August 15," district animal husbandry officer, Dr Kiran Parag, said.

Kharolkar is survived by his wife and two sons. He had visited Sangli during the 2005 floods as well to provide help to the affected farmers, Dr Parag said.

 

After the post-mortem, Kharolkar's body was handed over to his relatives, who arrived in Sangli after coming to know about his death.
