The e-rickshaw overturned occurred while a convoy of cars carrying administration officials, including police vehicles, were passing by - but none stopped.
As the pothole menace remains unsolved despite accidents claiming numerous lives across the country, passengers had a close shave in another such incident in Uttar Pradesh - this time in front of the administrative officials.
An e-rickshaw, packed with passengers, overturned in a water-logged pothole in Sitapur, a video of which has gone viral on social media.
The incident occurred while a convoy of cars carrying administration officials, including police vehicles, were passing by. But neither the officials nor any onlooker stopped to help - putting on display public indifference and lack of concern to the pothole menace.
Finding themselves on their own, the passengers helped the driver pull his e-rickshaw back on its wheels from the mud and the journey resumed.
