At least two people are feared dead after a portion of Gambhira Bridge near Mujpur in Padra taluka of Gujarat’s Vadodara district collapsed on Wednesday (July 9, 2025) morning.
Four vehicles — including two trucks and two vans — plunged into the Mahisagar River following the collapse around 7.30 am.
Rescue teams managed to pull out four persons alive, while search operations continue for those missing.
“We have rescued four persons so far, and the operation is still on,” police said.
The bridge, located along a state highway, served as a crucial link between Saurashtra, Central, and South Gujarat.
