An Indian woman tourist, who recently lost her husband in a road accident in Dubai and was battling for her life, has died on her flight back home in an air ambulance, a media report said on Wednesday. Neetu Jain Kawad, 38, died on Monday while being flown to Bengaluru in an air ambulance, two weeks after she lost her husband Dinesh Kawad, 40, in a tragic accident on Emirates Road on January 22.
