An eyewitness said Harsh Davda fell in the pit while overtaking another vehicle.
"Construction work is going on in the pit, iron rod frames are fixed and it was lying open, there were no barricades... had barricades been put around the pit, my son would not have died. Because of the Municipal Corporation's negligence, I lost my son," Ashwin Davda claimed.
