Three people were killed in an accident in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, when their car fell from an unfinished flyover. The crash happened on Saturday while the victims were on their way to a wedding in Bareilly from Gurugram. They were using Google Maps for directions, which led them onto the incomplete flyover.
The car, a Wagon R, possibly a hired taxi, went off the unfinished bridge and plunged into the shallow Ramganga river from a height of 50 feet. Locals discovered the car the next morning and alerted the police. Authorities confirmed the deaths of the three men and sent their bodies for post-mortem. Two of the victims were identified as Vivek and Amit, while the third person’s identity is still being verified.

The victims’ families are furious and have blamed the construction department for its negligence. They are demanding that an FIR be filed against the officials, accusing them of failing to ensure proper safety measures, including barricades, on the unfinished flyover.
