12-year-old Maharashtra girl injured after fall from zipline in Manali
Shimla, Jun 15 (PTI): A 12-year-old girl sustained injuries after she fell when the harness rope snapped during a zipline ride in Manali, officials said on Sunday.
The video of the girl, Trisha Bijwe, falling from the zipline had gone viral on social media platforms.
Trisha, a resident of Maharashtra's Nagpur, was visiting Manali with her family last week, when the incident happened.
According to officials, Trisha was midway on the zipline when the harness rope broke. She fell from around 30 feet height onto a gorge with boulders, sustaining serious injuries.
The girl was immediately rushed to a nearby medical facility, from where they were referred to Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research in Chandigarh. She was later taken to a private hospital in Nagpur, where she is currently undergoing treatment, they said.
Deputy Superintendent of Police Manali KD Sharma said both the parties involved reached a mutual understanding and no formal case was registered.
This is why adventure sports aren’t safe in India. In Manali, a young girl fell from a zipline—nearly 30 feet—and is now seriously injured. Anyone without proper experience starts these activities, and there’s no one to check. Action is only taken after a fatal accident happens. pic.twitter.com/Xy5LNYRDwe

4 workers die after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad
Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
