Cargo Ropeway Trolley Crashes at Gujarat's Pavagadh; No Casualties Reported
A cargo ropeway trolley at Gujarat's Pavagadh pilgrimage site crashed on Thursday due to a brake failure during routine inspection, officials said. The trolley was empty, and no casualties were reported. Last year, a separate cargo ropeway accident at the site resulted in six deaths. Authorities assured that the passenger ropeway, used by devotees visiting the Mahakali temple, remains safe and urged the public to disregard social media rumors about its safety.
