Four individuals from a family in Madhya Pradesh, including a married couple, tragically lost their lives in a road accident in Rajasthan’s Bundi district. The incident occurred on the night of Saturday and Sunday when the SUV they were traveling in collided with a truck on NH-52 near Hindoli town, under the jurisdiction of Hindoli police station.
The victims were identified as Devi Singh (50), his wife Maankhor Kanwar (45), his brother Rajaram (40), and his nephew Jitendra (20), who was Rajaram’s son. All of them resided in Gangukhedi village, Malwa in Agar district, Madhya Pradesh. The family was on their way from their native village to Pushkar in Ajmer for a religious purpose.
According to Manoj Sikarwal, the circle inspector of Hindoli police station, it is suspected that the SUV was traveling at a high speed and the truck ahead suddenly applied the brakes, causing the SUV to collide with it from behind. Unfortunately, three members of the family died on the spot, while the woman succumbed to her injuries during treatment at the hospital early on Sunday morning.
The truck driver fled the scene, leaving the vehicle behind. However, the police have seized the truck and are making efforts to apprehend the driver.
