From domestic bliss to despair: A Khagaria couple’s public spat on a bridge culminated in a dual dive into perilous river waters. Missing since Thursday, their story, immortalized in a viral clip, has gripped Bihar.
Beldaur’s BP Mandal Bridge on NH 107 was the stage for this sorrowful scene. The argument boiled over—the wife leaped, her husband, a swimmer named Rupesh, chased her into the depths. The river’s wrath separated them from safety.
Witnesses sprang into action, notifying Dial 112. Response teams combed the area amid a swelling crowd, but darkness halted progress. Beldaur police escalated by alerting SDRF for expert intervention.
With their wedding barely six months behind, relatives’ anguish was palpable as they appealed on-site. Cops confirm a probe into the row. ‘Rescue ops are priority,’ an officer noted. ‘We’ll spare no effort.’
Incidents like these expose vulnerabilities in young marriages and infrastructure risks. Community vigilance and mental health outreach are crucial. As dawn breaks on new searches, prayers unite for the couple’s return.
