A horrific accident in Madhya Pradesh has claimed the life of a 35-year-old man after a bridge suddenly collapsed. The man, identified as a former CRPF jawan, was returning from his sister’s wedding on Monday morning when the collapse occurred on the Nayagaon bridge along the Bareilly–Pipariya State Highway.
The bridge gave way without warning while repair work was underway beneath it. As two motorcycles were crossing, the collapsing section fell, causing the bikes and their riders to plunge. Four bikers and a labourer were severely injured; six labourers working under the bridge narrowly escaped, though one was hit by debris.
