Three Men Die After Falling Into Well During Late-Night Gathering in GujaratPreviousNext

In Gujarat's Bhavnagar district, three men—Rahul Chauhan, Nilesh Dabhi, and Ajitsinh—died after falling into an open agricultural well during a late-night gathering. The incident occurred when 11 men playing cards panicked and fled, reportedly fearing a police raid. Police denied conducting any raid at the location. The bodies were recovered following a call to the police control room and sent for post-mortem. Families alleged a police operation, but authorities refuted these claims, and the reason for the gathering remains unclear.
