Kerala ke Thrissur se ek behad dardnaak road accident saamne aaya hai, jahan National Highway-66 par ek horrific midnight crash mein Tamil Nadu ke 8 engineering students ki jaan chali gayi. Haadsa Friday raat kareeb 11:40 baje Kaipamangalam ke Panambikkunnu area mein hua.
Reports ke mutabik, students ek car mein Guruvayur se Kodungallur ki taraf ja rahe the. Isi dauraan under-construction NH-66 ke ek stretch par traffic diversion laga hua tha. Diversion ke paas ek goods lorry khadi thi, jiske rear se car ki takkar ho gayi.
Takkar itni zabardast thi ki car buri tarah se crush ho gayi aur usmein sawar log andar hi phans gaye. Rescue teams ko vehicle ko kaatkar occupants ko bahar nikalna pada. Police aur local residents ne rescue operation mein madad ki.
Police ke mutabik, 6 students ki maut spot par hi ho gayi, jabki do others ko hospital le jaaya gaya, lekin unhe bachaya nahi ja saka.
Sabhi victims Tamil Nadu ke Dindigul ke ek engineering college ke students bataye ja rahe hain. Accident ke baad area mein afra-tafri mach gayi aur bodies ko further procedures ke liye hospital bheja gaya.
Ab sabse bada sawaal NH-66 ke us stretch par parked lorry ko lekar uth raha hai. FIR ke mutabik lorry ko highway ke right side par allegedly illegally park kiya gaya tha, jabki wahan construction work ke chalte traffic diversion bhi tha. Police ab ye investigate kar rahi hai ki accident exactly kis wajah se hua aur road diversion aur parked lorry ki positioning ne tragedy mein kya role play kiya.
Ek pal mein ek saath 8 young engineering students ki zindagi khatam ho gayi, aur Kerala ke Thrissur mein hua ye accident highway safety aur ongoing construction zones mein traffic management par bhi serious questions khade kar raha hai.
