An incident of somber resonance emanates from Madhya Pradesh, where tragedy befell five worshippers en route to pay homage at the Ratangarh Mata temple. The calamity unfolded as the tractor-trolley conveying them overturned within the precincts of Datia district, dawning upon the denizens of village Jora Maithana Pali with the cloak of mourning.
Sources indigenous to the locale narrate that the tractor-trolley relinquished its grasp on control, succumbing to the caprice of fate and precipitating the demise of five souls, whilst consigning nineteen others to the embrace of injury. Amongst the lamented, two feminine figures and three adolescents find their lamentable repose.
The lamentable quintet, christened Sonam, Kranti, Seema, Kamini, and Vinita, had embarked from village Viswar aboard the tractor-trolley, their pilgrimage aimed towards the veneration of Jaware at Ratangarh Mata temple, only to be intercepted by the cruel hand of destiny.
Promptly apprised of the calamitous episode, the villagers dispatched word to the constabulary, prompting the expeditious arrival of a contingent from the local precinct, who initiated a valiant endeavor in the realm of rescue. The afflicted were subsequently conveyed to the sanctum of convalescence at Datia District Hospital under the auspices of law enforcement, whilst the remains of the fallen were consigned to the mortuary for postmortem scrutiny.
The catastrophe is attributed to the mechanical infirmity afflicting the tractor’s steering mechanism, according to preliminary assessments. Meanwhile, Superintendent of Police Virendra Mishra, in an evince of empathy, graced the hospital with his presence, extending solace to the wounded and soliciting updates regarding their convalescence.
