Five youths in their 20s had a near death experience on Monday near Chittor village. Five people who were their way to Haridwar encountered this experience whne their van swerved off the accident-prone narrow road along Ganga canal, plunging 16 foot down in the early hours of Monday, near Chittor village, under Sikhera police station.

Miraculously, the van got struck in the bushes at the edge of the canal. But the bushes could not hold the van’s weight for long and the vehicle began to slide towards the water. As the shell shocked five started at their watery grave, help arrived from the nearby police post at Chittor Village. Minutes before the van slid into the water,all five occupants were pulled out.
