The passenger, identified as A Velmurugan, a native of Nariyapatti village in Pudukottai, was suffering from a variety of health conditions.

Velmurugan's fellow passengers found him motionless and immediately alerted the flight crew. The crew then notified the Tiruchy airport.

A medical support team was on standby, and shortly after the plane touched down, the medical team rushed into the flight and declared Velmurugan dead on board.

His body was later shifted to the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Government Hospital in Tiruchy, where an autopsy is scheduled on Sunday.
