Bhopal: A young couple reportedly jumped from a moving train into the Dhasan River in Chhatarpur district, Madhya Pradesh, on Saturday afternoon, in an apparent suicide pact.

Villagers immediately informed the police and attempted to rescue the couple, but the fall proved fatal. Their bodies were recovered and sent to Naugaon Hospital for postmortem examination. Police have identified the young man as Sanjeev Ahirwar, 20, from Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, while the young woman's identity remains unknown. Authorities are investigating the circumstances behind the suspected suicide pact and are exploring potential motives.
