In Sheopur, Madhya Pradesh, rivers and streams are in spate due to intermittent rains for the last several days. Meanwhile, at many places people are not desisting from taking risks to reach their destination. The latest example of this has been seen on the Parvati river bridge on the Sheopur-Baran road, where the driver of a private bus, while crossing the river bridge swollen due to rain, put the lives of the passengers in danger by showing great carelessness. The video of the incident is now becoming increasingly viral on social media.
This video, which is going viral on social media, is of Kuhanjapur bridge of Parvati river flowing on the border line of Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan, where the driver made a private bus coming from Baran to Sheopur cross the bridge of the swollen river. If a slight mistake had been made, any untoward incident could have happened to the passengers traveling in the bus. A passerby standing on the bridge captured the carelessness of the bus driver in his mobile camera and made the video viral.
In this hair-raising video, you can clearly see how a blue bus full of passengers parked on the side of the bridge and a car are seen crossing the bridge despite there being 2 feet of water on the bridge. Some people standing on the side of the bridge are talking among themselves about the entire incident and are even shouting. The bus slowly reaches the other side amid the strong current and a car following behind it also reaches the other side due to the flow of the bridge. It was fortunate that the bus narrowly escaped being involved in an accident. But due to such negligence, the security arrangements of the police administration are also being exposed.
TI Satyam Gurjar of Baroda police station told that the bus had crossed the bridge from Rajasthan border. Police personnel have been deployed by putting up barricades in our border. Action will be taken against those who are negligent in the matter.
