In the early hours of Sunday (February 15), a horrific road accident unfolded on the Jetalsar Junction railway bridge in Jetpur city of Gujarat’s Rajkot district. Four friends, returning from the vibrant Maha Shivratri fair at Bhavnath in Junagadh, were travelling in a car when tragedy struck. The driver lost control of the vehicle while navigating the bridge amid heavy festival traffic, slamming into the sturdy bridge structure with devastating force. The impact was so severe that the car literally split into two halves, scattering wreckage across opposite sides of the road. Local residents and passing motorists alerted authorities, who rushed to the scene to find a chaotic tableau of twisted metal and the injured.
