A tragic accident claimed the lives of three family members, including a four-year-old boy, after their car caught fire in Balaghat district, Madhya Pradesh. The incident occurred late Saturday night, with the vehicle catching fire following a fall into a roadside ditch.
Two members, including the driver Seetram Kelkar and his mother, suffered severe injuries and were hospitalized in neighboring Gondia, Maharashtra. Tragically, Kelkar's father, wife, and young son could not escape the inferno.
A neighbor's child traveling with the family miraculously survived without injury. Police reported that passersby managed to save some occupants by breaking the car's windows, but the fire spread too rapidly for complete rescue.
