Kite strings also injured others, including a farmer in Maharashtra's Nashik district who needed 150 stitches for a deep cut in his neck. A seven-year-old boy named Kanishk lost his life to Chinese manja in MP's Dhar city Sunday evening while travelling with his father on a motorcycle to buy snacks.
