Six people have died in the accident and five injured have been admitted to the hospital." The police are currently working on identifying the deceased. They have found two identity cards, one from Maulasar district, Nagaur, and the other from Sikar, in the cars.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma expressed his condolences in a tweet on Sunday evening. He stated, "The news of the deaths of people in a road accident in Sikar district is very sad. May Lord Shri Ram grant peace to the departed souls and speedy recovery to the injured." The chief minister also assured that necessary instructions have been given to provide proper treatment to the injured and relief to the victims.
In a separate accident, at least 40 people were injured early Monday morning when two buses collided on the Yamuna Expressway in Mathura, Uttar Pradesh. The incident took place at Mile Stone 110 Raya Cut in Mathura around 3 am. One bus was traveling from Dholpur to Noida, while the other was heading from Etawah to Noida. Low visibility caused by dense fog is believed to be a contributing factor to the accident. Parts of North India continue to experience reduced visibility due to the foggy conditions.
It is a tragic day on the roads as these accidents claim lives and leave several injured. Authorities are working to provide the necessary support and treatment to the victims and their families.
