In this case, local Vijay Shankar said that every year on the day of Rakshabandhan, a fair is held on the banks of the Yamuna river, and the Yamuna river is worshipped. Let us tell you that this fair is called Navi Mela in which all the villagers are involved and there is a program of dancing and singing.
After that, the women travel to the Yamuna river, although the fair has not been organized due to the sinking of the boat on Thursday afternoon. On the other hand, local Ramu said that there is a means of the boat to go across the Yamuna river, which attracts about 1000-1500 people every day. At the same time, the construction of the bridge on the Yamuna river of Marka village has been going on since 2011, although the work of the bridge has not been completed yet. However, if the bridge had been commissioned, such a major accident would have been averted. Apart from this, he said that the population of Marka village is about 14,000 and there are 10 to 15 villages adjacent to it. The villagers have a boat to go across the river. There are 6 boats on the banks of river Yamuna which carry people from this side to the other side.
