Eyewitnesses reported the bodies around 11 AM, leading to swift action by local police and GRP personnel. The area was cordoned off as forensic teams began gathering evidence.

Among the deceased is Satyajit Shrimati, aged 50, from Narampura. Efforts continue to identify the younger victim, approximately 32, with door-to-door inquiries and database checks underway.

Speaking to the media, Inspector Vimal Dhangar of Vadaj station revealed, ‘Initial evidence points to the event occurring late evening or night. We’re awaiting postmortem results for clarity.’

Authorities have registered separate cases of unnatural death and are delving into circumstances—be it accidental trespassing, deliberate act, or otherwise. CCTV analysis and witness statements form the crux of the investigation.

This fatal mishap echoes a recent Rajkot accident involving the high-speed Vande Bharat train, which claimed two lives at a level crossing. With such incidents on the rise, experts call for urgent infrastructure upgrades like fencing, better signage, and community education to avert future disasters.

As the city mourns, police assure the public of a transparent inquiry, vowing to uncover the truth behind this heartbreaking loss.
