Mahendra Pratap Singh, a resident of Fatehabad Rasulpur in Agra, had gone to Maha Kumbh with his wife Bhuri Devi. While returning after bathing, his car collided with a dumper on Monday morning. The bodies of the husband and wife sitting on the front seat of the car were completely crushed. They died on the spot. 60-year-old Arvind Kumari, 40-year-old Pinky, Bhagyashree and Sevaram, who were sitting in the back seat of the car, were sent to SN Medical. Their condition is said to be critical.
Mahendra Pratap left for Prayagraj from his home in Agra at 11 am on Saturday. He was returning on Monday due to being stuck in the traffic jam in Prayagraj. It is being told that Mahendra Pratap, who was driving the car, was very tired. He dozed off while driving the car. A dumper was coming from the Bah side on the Bah-Kachaura road. Due to the single road, both the vehicles came face to face. The car collided with the high-speed dumper. The car was badly damaged after the accident. People got stuck inside the car. At the same time, the person driving the dumper fled after the accident.
The local people called the ambulance. It is alleged that the ambulance came after 30 minutes. After this, Mahendra and Bhuri Devi were sent to Bah CHC. The doctors declared them dead. People along with the police took out the people trapped inside the car. Injured Seva Ram told the doctor in the hospital that I was sitting in the back seat. Everyone was very tired. We were also in a light sleep. Suddenly there was a loud explosion. When we understood, we saw that the front part of the car had collapsed. Everyone was trapped. I think Mahendra had perhaps dozed off. This caused the accident. After the collision between the car and the dumper, there was a traffic jam of about 2 kilometers on the road. The police got the dumper and the car to the side with the help of a crane. After this, the traffic started.
