In a terrifying incident in Saharanpur, a family escaped with their lives after their car plunged into an unmarked 11-foot pit, reportedly dug by a civic contractor. The incident, which could have been fatal, has raised concerns over the local government's oversight and negligence.

According to the report, the pit, which was dug in the middle of the road, was unmarked, leaving no warning for drivers. The family, who were traveling in the western UP town, reported that the car suddenly fell into the massive pit, leaving them terrified and trapped.

Thankfully, the car did not topple over and the depth of the pit proved to be the saving grace as the car's engine stopped working and activated the brakes, leaving the car suspended vertically in the pit. Locals arrived at the harrowing scene, and with the help of a hydraulic crane, they managed to pull the car up, saving the family.

The contractor, who allegedly dug the pit, has not faced any action, sparking anger amongst the locals who demand justice.

In a broader context, this highlights the urgent need for stricter protocols and regular audits to prevent such negligence, which puts lives at risk.

Thankfully, this time, the family escaped with their lives, but the incident could have been much more tragic.
