We have lost three police officers, including Ashok Sharma, Sub-Inspector Ninama and women constable Aarti Pal. Walking towards Chintaman, the woman was running the car as soon as the car was raised.
SP Sharma said, “The NDRF team is also searching since morning. The dead body we have found from under the Bherugarh bridge is of Ashok Sharma. Our search operation is going on and the search for the car is also going on.” Ujjain SP Pradeep Sharma told ANI, “A white car has been reported to have been reported to fall into the river. This incident took place around 8:45 pm … The flow of water is fast, which is making it difficult to find out the number of people or their situation in it.
