"The incident came to light when her uncle came home but did not get any response when he knocked at the door. He then went to Gulshan's father's shop nearby and when he returned and opened the door, he found her hanging from a wall-mounted utensil rack," Gaikwad said.
"She was rushed to hospital where authorities declared her dead on arrival. She is a Class VI student and had returned home with her siblings at around 9 pm on Friday. The siblings went down to play after that," he said. A probe is on to find out the cause, he added.
