The second incident happened on 27 June i.e. yesterday in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. A car had arrived at Dumna Airport in Jabalpur to drop an passenger. Both the passengers and the driver got out of the car after parking it at the drop and go lane . But a few minutes later, a part of the canopy tent fell on the parked car.
Actually, a canopy tent has been installed in the porch of the terminal building so that the rain water does not enter the terminal building. But the rain water could not come out of the canopy tent and the weight of the water kept increasing on the tent. Due to which a part of the iron tent fell on the car. It was a good thing that there was no suspect in the car, otherwise he could have lost his life.
Let us tell you that the expansion of Dumna airport was done at a cost of about Rs 450 crore. But yesterday we got to see how negligence was done in the work.
Now the videos of both these incidents are going viral on social media.
