A 30-year-old woman and her three minor children fell from a bastion at the famous Naldurg Fort in <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/maharashtras-dharashiv-gets-rs-23-crore-plan-for-stray-dog-shelters-and-animal-cremation-centres-23644488" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Maharashtra's Dharashiv district,</a> resulting in the deaths of the mother and two kids, police said on Friday.
The incident took place on Thursday, they said.
According to the police, Ashwini Manohar Pol, who lived with her parents in Vhantal village, visited the historical site with her son Ajinkya (5.5 years) and twin daughters Veera and Kranti, aged two and a half years.
The four fell from the Upli bastion, the tallest point at the fort, an official said.
Ashwini and Ajinkya died at the scene, while Veera and Kranti were rushed to the Dharashiv Civil Hospital with injuries. However, Kranti also died during treatment, the official said.
Spread over 105 acres, the Naldurg fort has over 100 bastions. The Upli bastion is nearly 80 feet tall.
Ashwini had earlier joined the Maharashtra Security Force, a government security agency, but resigned 4-5 months ago, the official said.
