In a devastating incident that has shocked the state of Andhra Pradesh, seven lives were abruptly ended in a gruesome road accident on Wednesday. The tragic event unfolded on the national highway near Peramana in Sangam mandal, where a family's journey to a hospital ended in a fatal collision with a sand-laden tipper truck.
The truck, allegedly driving on the wrong side of the road, collided with the car, dragging it along before coming to a stop. The impact was so severe that the car was crushed, leaving no chance of survival for its occupants. It took authorities a grueling four hours to extract the mangled vehicle and recover the bodies using a JCB machine. The victims, all from the same family residing in Nellore, were identified as Tallur Srinivasulu, Tallur Radha, Sesham Sheramma, Sesham Balavengayya, Tellagundla Srinivasulu, Tellagundla Lakshmi, and Kathi Brahmayya.
This incident has sparked outrage and grief among the public and government officials alike. Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu expressed profound shock and ordered an inquiry, promising strict action against those responsible. Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan, acknowledging the growing public anger, emphasized the need for firm measures to curb reckless driving, especially concerning heavy vehicles transporting sand and construction materials.
As the families mourn their devastating loss, the government's assurance of support and the ongoing investigation offer a glimmer of hope for justice and prevention of similar tragedies in the future. The incident serves as a grim reminder of the urgent need for stricter road safety measures and enforcement to protect innocent lives from such catastrophic accidents.
