An unfortunate incident occurred in Mandla, Madhya Pradesh, where four youths lost their lives in an electrocution tragedy at a Ganesh Pandal on Saturday morning. The accident took place when a power line reportedly snapped and fell on people sleeping inside the pandal in Hirapur village under the Nainpur area. Three other individuals suffered severe burns from the incident.
Among the deceased are Jainu Bhanvre, aged 19, Ravi Jharia, 24, Krishna Kumar Bhanvre, 18, and Virendra Bhanvre, 24. According to Nainpur SDOP Manish Raj, members of the Ganesh festival committee returned to the village around 4 am after completing the idol immersion ceremony. Eight youths subsequently slept inside the pandal to guard the items and materials used for the Ganesh tableau.
The tragic electrocution happened while the youths were asleep, resulting in four deaths and three severe injuries. The exact cause of the fatal electrocution is currently under investigation by a team from the electricity company, who are examining whether the incident was caused by a snapped electricity line falling on the structure or a short circuit inside the pandal.
