Strong winds took away the balance, the boat became the stage of death
According to initial information, more than 30 tourists were aboard the cruise boat, which had entered the river for general sightseeing. The weather was calm and people were enjoying the pleasant weather, but no one had any idea that within a few minutes this walk would turn into a terrible tragedy. As the weather changed, strong winds and rough waves began to destabilize the cruise boat. According to eyewitnesses, the boat wobbled badly several times and the crew was unable to control the situation. Within some time the boat lost its balance and overturned. The boat was completely engulfed by the strong currents of water within a few minutes, causing screams among the passengers.
35 tourists. A storm. No warning, no safety net. Bargi Dam cruise tragedy and 4 dead, 15+ missing. When do we start taking river tourism safety seriously in India?
10 dead in Vrindavan. 4 dead in Jabalpur. All within one month😓
