The victims were immediately rescued and taken to a nearby hospital for treatment by locals.
According to available information, the trio was passing on the bridge when it suddenly collapsed, apparently following heavy rainfall.
Owing to the incident, road communication to many areas of Kulasing panchayat and its adjoining areas were cut-off.
