According to initial reports, multiple tourists were trapped under the broken structure, and rescue efforts were underway when the flow intensified. The video, which has since gone viral, ends with the disturbing sight of several individuals being carried away by the river.
While the exact number of people trapped or swept away remains unclear, local authorities have confirmed that over 20 ambulances have rushed to the scene. Rescue operations are ongoing, with teams trying to pull survivors out from the rubble and the water.
Local MLA has claimed six deaths so far, but officials have yet to issue an official confirmation. The search for missing individuals continues amid fears that more people may be buried under debris or lost in the current.
The incident has raised serious concerns about infrastructure safety and maintenance, especially in tourist-heavy zones. Questions are being raised on whether the bridge was structurally inspected and if any prior warnings were ignored.
Authorities have urged people to avoid the area as rescue operations intensify. Further updates are awaited as search and rescue teams work against time to minimize the tragedy.
