Here the dumper crushed many bikers, four wheelers and pedestrians. The accident was so severe that both the legs of a young man were crushed, and a crane was called to remove him.
Annoyed with the accident, people closed the market and blocked the road. Locals have held the local police responsible for this horrific accident as the entry of the heavy vehicles is prohibited in the city during daytime.
ASP said that It is true that the entry of big vehicles is prohibited in the city during daytime and the police is investigating how this dumper entered the city. There are two entry points in the city, both of which have been sealed by police, so that in future no vehicle can enter the city during the daytime.
