Rescue operations are underway, with three National Disaster Response Force Teams rushed to the site, local media reportedAt least 60 people died and many are feared injured after a cable bridge collapsed into a river in the western Indian state of Gujarat on Sunday evening, local media reported.
Officials told local media over a hundred people were plunged into the Machchu river when the bridge in the state’s Morbi district collapsed. It was not immediately clear how many people were on the bridge, but officials fear the death toll could rise. State minister Brijesh Merja told television channels that 60 people have died so far and that 17 people were admitted to hospitals.
Days ago, the 19th-century, colonial-era bridge was reopened after renovation. Officials said that the bridge gave way because it could not handle the number of people on it.
