Surat family goes missing after taking photo near Nepal's Bridge: Mother loses contact with son, daughter-i

Now, only debris and broken roads remain there. However, just a few hours before the bridge was washed away, a Patidar couple, originally from Surat and currently residing in America, had taken a photograph there, which has now become their final picture before going missing.

In a video of this tragedy, the Chinese immigration office located on the China-Nepal border is seen being reduced to dust in seconds. At that time, a large number of people waiting for immigration were also swept away.

Shortly before this tragedy, 58-year-old Paresh Patel from Surat and his 54-year-old wife Jyotiben Patel had taken a picture at the Friendship Bridge after completing their immigration process. The immigration complex can also be seen in the background of this photo.
