In one such incident, incessant rains in the national capital led to a sinkhole opening in the Dwarka’s Sector 18. This led to the road collapsing and shockingly, a car which was stuck on the road, was also swallowed by the sinkhole. The car was later pulled out with a crane and fortunately, no injuries have been reported. A similar incident had happened in Mumbai recently and coincidently, the cars in both the incident were of Hyundai.
