As eastern India’s Jharkhand experienced a storm spell, strong winds caused an empty autorickshaw to fall on the roadside on March 23.

The incident took place in Barharwa, located in the Rajmahal subdivision of the Sahibganj district.

Visuals feature the strong winds gushing by and causing an empty autorickshaw to move forward on the road till it drifts to the roadside and tumbles down. Later, two men approach the vehicle to pick it up while the winds continue to blow.

A storm struck several parts of the district, throwing routine life out of gear and wreaking havoc in the region.
