Mangalore Today News Network

Belthangady, July 4, 2025: A car fell into a roadside ditch due to sudden landslip at Nidigal in Kalmanja on the Mangaluru-Chikkamagaluru National Highway on Wednesday night.


Landslip


The car driver Shekhar had stopped the car on the roadside and was speaking to someone over phone when the soil on the roadside suddenly began to slip and the car fell into a ditch nearly 20 feet deep. Luckily the car driver was rescued by the locals who also assisted in retrieving the car.

It is said soil which was dumped on the roadside during widening works had loosened resulting in the landslip. The absence of any retention wall in the area has been blamed for the mishap.
