A truly bizarre and startling incident has come to light from Rishikesh in Uttarakhand, where a man who was being taken for his final rites suddenly came back to life when the vehicle carrying him jolted through a pothole on the road. The unusual turn of events has left locals astonished and sparked widespread discussions.
Declared dead by doctors
Sai Ram, a resident of Geeta Nagar Gali Number 5, was earlier declared dead by doctors. According to the medical assessment, his kidneys had failed and he had suffered two heart attacks, leading to the pronouncement of his death. Following this, his grieving family members had made all necessary arrangements for his final rites.
Preparations for final journey
The family had reached out to the Muktidham Seva Samiti to arrange a funeral transport vehicle to take the body to the cremation ground. The committee had promptly booked the vehicle and assigned a driver to assist the family during the somber occasion.
Pothole jolt revives breath
As the ambulance carrying the body was passing near the Shyampur railway crossing, one of its wheels plunged into a deep pothole on the road, causing a violent jolt. Strangely enough, right at that moment, the man who was presumed dead suddenly opened his eyes and began breathing again.
Muktidham committee confirms turn of events
Pankaj Gupta of the Muktidham Seva Samiti shared details of the incident, stating that he had received a booking for the funeral vehicle earlier in the day and had finalized the arrangement. However, at around 2:30 PM, he received a phone call from the family asking to cancel the booking.
Admitted to AIIMS Rishikesh
The family informed him over the phone that the sudden jolt from the ambulance hitting the pothole had revived Sai Ram, and he was immediately rushed to AIIMS Rishikesh for medical treatment. While the incident has stunned many people, it has also raised questions among some locals.
