MP accident: Three minors were killed and several others injured when they fell off a tractor-trolley in Madhya Pradesh's Chhatarpur on Monday evening, according to police.
According to officials, the incident occurred on Bajna Road, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Bijawar police station.
The deceased were identified as Namrata Lodhi (15), Ravi Lodhi (8), and Divyanshi Lodhi (5).

According to police, about 40 people from Jujharpur village were travelling to Jatashankar Dham in a tractor-trolley when the accident occurred.
"Prima facie it appears that a two-wheeler came in front of the tractor-trolley, and its driver, in order to save the motorcyclist, lost control over the wheels and ended up crashing the trolley on the roadside, causing people travelling on it to fall," Bijawar Sub-Divisional Officer of Police (SDOP) Shashank Jain stated.
