From there the Chief Minister reached Kotdwar, where he met the injured and their families at the base hospital and assured them of all possible help. Apart from them, former Chief Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank and Assembly Speaker Ritu Khanduri Bhushan also reached the hospital and inquired about the condition of the injured.
Divyanshi defeated death
About 52 people were involved in the bus that took the procession from Laldhang to Pauri, in which about 15 children and women were also aboard. The death of villagers in a road accident has created a ruckus in the village. Actually, out of all the people who were on the bus, there are only a few people who returned safely. But in the procession, the groom Sandeep’s relative Rasulpur’s Gudiya and his two-year-old daughter Divyanshi were also in the bus. Divyanshi was in her mother’s lap in the bus, but during the accident, Gudiya did not allow her innocent daughter to be separated from her even after the bus fell into a 500 feet deep gorge. She held him in her lap even at the last moment.
Gudiya died in the accident, but daughter Divyanshi was saved. Dharmendra Upadhyay, the driver of the groom’s car, said that after the incident at around 6.00 pm, when the rescue team saw Gudiya, she had died, but Divyanshi sitting in her lap was safe. For about 11 hours, Divyanshi got a new life by staying safe in her mother’s lap. Told that he was also surprised to see that the girl was not only safe and did not fall anywhere even after being spilled from her lap. Otherwise something could have happened to him even if he was separated from the lap. After the accident, the girl has now reached her home. Where she is unable to understand anything and is repeatedly remembering only her mother, but the innocent does not know that her mother who saved her is no longer in this world.
