The accident took place at the annual two-day fair in Madhonagar village, which features rides, religious ceremonies, and celebrations organized by the Shri Shri Swami Nityananda Seva Samiti. The viral video, shared by a user with the handle “@sarthaktya31022” on X (formerly Twitter), shows the young girl’s entire scalp hanging from a bar on the ride, while people nearby rush to her aid. Bleeding profusely, Anuradha is unable to walk and appears to be in critical condition.
As soon as the incident occurred, Anuradha’s family immediately took her to a local hospital in Gursahaiganj.

Safety Tips for Fair-Goers
For those attending fairs or amusement events, it is crucial to keep safety in mind. Here are some precautions families can take to reduce the risk of accidents:
- Inspect rides visually: Check if the rides appear well-maintained before allowing children to use them.
- Follow age and height restrictions: Only allow children on rides suited for their age and height to ensure they are appropriately restrained.
- Secure loose items: Make sure long hair, loose clothing, or accessories are properly secured to avoid them getting caught in any machinery.
- Stay alert: Always watch the ride operator’s instructions and alert them immediately if anything seems amiss.
