Army Vehicle Plunges Into Gorge in Ramban, Jammu and Kashmir, Causing Fatalities for Three Soldiers
New Spin:
A tragic incident took place yesterday in the rugged terrain of Jammu and Kashmir's Ramban, claiming the lives of three courageous soldiers. An Indian Army truck, part of a convoy en route from Jammu to Srinagar, met a devastating fate, plummeting into a deep gorge at Battery Chashma, near Ramban.
According to sources, the accident occurred around 11:30 AM, sending shockwaves through the area. Vikram Parihar, SHO of Batote Police Station, confirmed the horrifying incident: "Around 200-300 meters of a gorge in Ramban's Battery Chashma claimed the lives of three brave soldiers as an army truck they were traveling in plunged to its depths. The police, SDRF, Army, and locals joined forces to retrieve the bodies and carry out the rescue operation."
The vehicle, severely damaged, had no chance of survival after the fall. Media reports indicate that the road conditions in the Ramban district, with its steep curves and rough patches, may have played a role in the accident.

As the nation mourns, let us remember the sacrifices these soldiers made for the safety and freedom of our great nation.
