On a Friday morning, tragedy struck the peaceful town of Rourkela as a head-on collision between a scooter and a bike resulted in one death and three serious injuries. The incident took place near Khuntgaon, under the jurisdiction of Mahulpada police in the Sundargarh district. According to sources, the three injured individuals were immediately rushed to the Rourkela Government Hospital for urgent medical attention as their condition was critical.
It was a gloomy day for the group of friends who had set out on a scooter in high spirits, excited to purchase chicken for the upcoming Raja celebration. Little did they know that their joyous outing would turn into a tragic accident. The three friends - Kartik Nayak, Chandan Nayak, and Mana Dehury - were joined by their friend Sambaru Nayak on their way back. As fate would have it, they collided with another scooter carrying two individuals, Paresh Munda and Jethu Thakur, who were traveling from the opposite direction. The impact of the collision was so severe that Mana Dehury lost his life on the spot, while the scooter was left in a mangled state.
Luckily, the locals who witnessed the accident quickly came to their rescue and took them to the nearby Primary Health Center. However, the injuries sustained by the three were grave, and their condition worsened. They were immediately shifted to the Rourkela Government Hospital, where they are currently being treated for their critical injuries.
This unfortunate incident adds to the growing number of road accidents in the district. In the past eight days alone, three precious lives have been lost and more than six people have been seriously injured. Looking at the records of the last six months, including this incident, it is distressing to note that a total of 19 individuals have lost their lives, and over 30 have been left with severe injuries. It is a stark reminder to all to be cautious and responsible while on the road, as one moment of recklessness can have devastating consequences. Let us hope that measures are taken to prevent such tragedies in the future.
