Saharsa, news is coming from Saharsa district of Bihar, where a boat met with an accident in Kosi river near Mahisi Rajanpur. However, the people on the boat somehow survived by taking the help of a nearby pipe bridge, but four bikes kept on the boat drowned in the river.
According to the information, after leaving Rajanpur Ghat, the boat was going to the area inside the embankment. It is reported that the boat was carrying more passengers and vehicles than its capacity. Despite the registration of many boats by the district administration, many boats are being operated illegally without registration.
The search for the sunken boat is going on. In this case, the Zonal Magistrate of Mahisi said that all the people on the boat are safe. A motorcycle drowned in the water has been taken out and search is on.
