MP: Truck plunges into backwater of Bargi dam in Mandla district
Mandla (MP), Nov 13 (PTI) A truck fell into the backwater of the Bargi dam after crashing through the protective railing of a bridge in Madhya Pradesh's Mandla district, police said on Thursday.
The incident occurred around 11.30 pm on Wednesday on the Mandla-Jabalpur National Highway-30, they said.
The number of people on the truck that plunged into the backwater of the dam on the Narmada river is yet to be determined, an official said.
“The actual number of persons on board will be known once the truck is pulled out," Tikaria police station house officer Gopal Ghasle told PTI over the phone.
He said the water level at the spot is high, leaving only about 12 to 15 feet between the surface and the bridge.
