A major tragedy struck Nashik, Maharashtra. On Friday night, around 10 PM, nine members of the same family lost their lives after their car plunged into a roadside well in the city’s Shivajinagar area. The incident has cast a pall of gloom over the entire Dindori taluka. The police are currently investigating the matter.
According to reports, a meeting organized by Wadje Classes was held at the Raje Banquet Hall in Shivajinagar. The Dargode family had traveled from Indore (Dindori Taluka) to attend this meeting. After the meeting concluded, the Dargode family was returning home in their Maruti XL car when the driver lost control of the vehicle, causing it to veer off the road and fall into a water-filled well situated along the roadside. Following the accident, a large crowd of onlookers gathered at the scene.
Upon receiving news of the tragedy, Tehsildar Mukesh Kamble, Police Inspector Bhagwan Mathure, and Chief Officer Sandeep Chaudhary rushed to the spot, accompanied by police personnel, the fire brigade, a disaster management team, and local residents. As the well was filled with water, the rescue operation faced significant difficulties. The car was eventually retrieved from the well past midnight with the assistance of two cranes.
During the rescue operation, the bodies of eight individuals were recovered from the car, while a specialized search operation was launched to locate a young girl who had drowned in the well. Her body was subsequently recovered as well.
