A devastating road accident in Bihar’s Bhagalpur district claimed the lives of at least five Kanwariyas late Sunday night. The group of nine devotees was traveling in a pickup truck when disaster struck. The vehicle’s DJ music system, mounted on the roof, came into contact with a live electrical wire. This contact resulted in the vehicle overturning and plunging into a roadside canal. The accident occurred on the Shahkund-Sultanganj road as the Kanwariyas were en route to Jayesthgaur Nathsthan, coinciding with the fourth and final Monday of Shrawan.
