Three Kumbh pilgrims die, five injured in Sidhi as vehicle falls into gorge. Initial reports varied, with some sources stating four fatalities, though the police confirmed three. It appears that in an attempt to maneuver around another vehicle, the driver lost control, sending their vehicle tumbling into the deep gorge of the Kaimur hills. A vigilant tractor rider who was passing by alerted the police who rescued the passengers from the 40-foot deep gorge. The injured, Neeraj Vaish, Krishna Vaish,. Pradeep Sahu, Sujeet Yadav, and Krishna Sahu were all between 22 and 30 years old. The roads from Madhya Pradesh to Prayagraj remain congested due to the ongoingKumbh Mela, contributing to the challenges faced by travellers and emergency responders alike. It is hoped that the accident will not have a long-term impact on the ongoing Mela in the state. The road is expected to be cleared by the end of the day.
