Three persons including a woman miraculously survived on Tuesday morning when the hanging bridge that connects Keirao Bitra and Keirao Mating breached following the snapping of the iron cable.
The enraged local residents doused petrol and torched it saying that the government has neglected it.
This is the only means of communication between the two villages on the either side of the Iril river.

The three persons were identified as Phunal Maring, S.Moba and CH Khudabi.
The residents rescued the three persons from possible deaths.
The Muslim villagers bound the car at the balustrade of the bridge and later it was safely brought to the shore with the help of a crane.
Then the Meitei and Muslim villagers torched the planks of the bridge by pouring petrol.
