A 28-year-old Haryana resident died while another is missing after a SUV with four passengers plunged into the Ganga canal on the Delhi-Haridwar national highway, police said on Thursday.
The other two passengers were rescued, they said.
The incident happened near Dhamat village under Purkazi police station limits, about 25 km from Muzaffarnagar city, on Wednesday night, Circle Officer Kuldeep Singh said.
The officer said Mohit (28), Anuj (30), Anil (28) and Bharat (25) were on their way to Haridwar from Haryana's Palwal in the car when the vehicle fell into the canal.
