Rewari: A horrific road mishap took place late Saturday night on the Delhi-Jaipur National Highway in the Rewari district of Haryana, where an out-of-control truck laden with chickpeas crashed and overturned directly onto a moving car. This tragic accident resulted in the instantaneous deaths of four individuals belonging to the same family, while a child of roughly 5 years of age sustained injuries. The impact of the crash was so severe that the car was completely crushed beneath the heavy truck, leaving the occupants with no opportunity whatsoever to escape or save themselves. Local law enforcement authorities are currently investigating the matter to determine the exact sequence of events.
Family Returning to Delhi
According to available details, the family of Deepak, who hailed from the village of Aalu Wali Bholawas in Banpur, Rajasthan, had been residing in Delhi for a long period. All family members had visited their ancestral village some time ago and were heading back to Dwarka in Delhi by car on Saturday. Around 11:30 pm on Saturday night, their vehicle reached near the flyover close to the Banipur Chowk in the Bawal area of Rewari, when the catastrophic incident struck.
Heavy Trailer Overturns on Vehicle
During the journey, a heavy trailer filled with chickpeas lost control and toppled directly onto the car driving underneath it. The collapse of the massive vehicle buried the car entirely beneath it, causing two people to lose their lives right on the spot. Upon receiving information, police personnel rushed to the site and initiated rescue operations. Cranes had to be deployed to extricate the victims trapped inside the wreckage. The situation was so dire that rescuers had to cut open the windows of the car to reach the trapped passengers.
Identities of the Deceased
Following strenuous efforts, the police managed to pull out all the occupants from the crushed car and shifted the victims to the Bawal Civil Hospital. Upon arrival, the attending doctors pronounced Deepak, Sarita, Nitin, and दिव्या dead. A child aged around five years was also hurt in the collision and is currently undergoing medical treatment at the hospital.
Speeding and Prior Collision
Eyewitnesses stated that the truck driver was operating the vehicle at an excessive speed. Reports indicated that the truck had initially hit another vehicle further along the road before losing complete control and crashing onto the family car. However, the exact causes of the tragedy will be conclusively established only after the police conclude their detailed investigation.
