India, June 16 -- In response to the bridge collapse incident over the Indrayani River on Sunday, the district administration has formed a committee to probe potential lapses.

At least four persons died and two are missing after an iron bridge collapsed at Kundmala in Maval tehsil of Pune district. As many as 51 persons were injured and over 50 were rescued, said officials.

The bridge was packed with over 125 visitors and five to six two-wheelers when it collapsed at around 3.30 pm.

A caution board had been installed on the bridge, warning people not to use it due to its poor condition. However, no barricades or guards were deployed to prevent access. The lack of enforcement allowed tourists and locals to use the bridge freely.
