Nagpur, Aug 11, 2025: A disturbing video has emerged from Nagpur, which shows a man carrying the body of his deceased wife tied to a motorcycle after allegedly receiving no help from passersby. The incident took place on Sunday at nearly 12 p.m. on the Nagpur-Jabalpur National Highway near the Morfata area under the Deolapar police jurisdiction.

The woman, identified as Gyarsi Amit Yadav, died on the spot after being hit by a speeding truck. Her husband, Amit Yadav, was left helpless after repeated pleas for assistance were ignored.

After failing to get any help to transport the body, a desperate Amit decided to tie his wife’s body to his two-wheeler and carry it back to their native village in Madhya Pradesh. The couple hailed from Seoni district in Madhya Pradesh but had been living for the past 10 years in Lonara, near Koradi, Nagpur.

The accident took place on Sunday, when Amit and his wife were travelling by motorcycle from Lonara to Karanpur via Deolapar.

A video showing Amit transporting his wife’s body tied to his motorcycle has gone viral on social media.

 

While no one came for help initially, several people later tried to stop him once they saw him carrying the body on the motorcycle. Fearing confrontation or trouble, he refused to stop.

The highway police, who reportedly filmed the viral video, initially signaled him to halt, but he continued riding. He was eventually stopped some distance ahead. The police took custody of the woman’s body and sent it for postmortem to Nagpur’s Mayo Hospital.

The incident has sparked outrage and raised serious questions about the lack of empathy and emergency response in such tragic situations.
