Trapped on a smoky terrace with no escape route, Archana wrapped her one-year-old baby in a bedsheet and handed the child to neighbors on another rooftop.
She then helped her daughters, 13 and 10, and her 10-year-old nephew cross over using a ladder as a bridge.
Once all four were safe, she collapsed.

Firefighters had trouble reaching Archana due to blocked exits and the building's old structure.
Chief Fire Officer CM Sharma said these issues made rescue difficult.
The tragedy has sparked fresh calls for better fire safety in crowded buildings.
