Five people, including a pregnant woman and a toddler, were killed when their car plunged into a 70-foot-deep gorge near Rngain, about midway on the Shillong-Dawki road in Meghalaya’s East Khasi Hills district, police said on Monday.

The accident took place around 7 pm on Sunday near a dangerous section of the highway known for sharp bends coupled with dense fog causing low visibility, and ongoing construction.

The vehicle was en route from Shillong to their home in Langkyrdem when the driver reportedly lost control and veered off the road.
