Tragic Accident in Indore Claims Life of Woman and Injures Six Others

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A devastating incident occurred in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, on Sunday evening, resulting in the loss of a 35-year-old woman’s life and leaving six others injured, including three children. The accident took place at the Pedmi-Khandel turning point in the Kampel area at approximately 4 pm.

Two families, consisting of seven members, were on their way back from a parent-teacher meeting at their children’s school when tragedy struck. The loaded truck, carrying soybean deoiled cake and traveling from Indore to Harda, overturned onto the car they were in as the driver lost control at the turning point. Shockingly, the truck driver and cleaner fled the scene following the accident.

Upon receiving the distressing news, the local Kampel police chowki in-charge, SI Satyendra Singh Sisodiya, immediately launched a rescue operation with the assistance of bystanders to extract the trapped individuals from the car. The rescue efforts were focused on freeing the women and children first, with the car driver being the last to be rescued due to being severely trapped.

The car sustained severe damage in the accident

All the injured individuals were swiftly transported to the hospital via ambulances for urgent medical attention. Tragically, one woman, identified as Anju Jaiswal from village Mirzapur, Dewas, succumbed to her injuries, while the others are currently undergoing treatment.

The injured parties have been identified as Sumit Jaiswal (40), his wife Purnima Jaiswal (35), his mother Savita (60), his son Vyomesh (3), his daughter Mitali (9), all residents of village Udainagar, Dewas, and Anju’s daughter Kavya (9). Sumit, who was driving the car at the time of the accident, sustained critical injuries.

Anju, the wife of Sumit’s cousin Anil Jaiswal, had accompanied the families to the parent-teacher meeting as Mitali and Kavya were classmates in the same school in Indore. The tragic accident occurred on their way back from the meeting.

Sumit operates a hardware shop, while Anil runs a grocery store in their respective hometowns. The authorities have launched an investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding the accident and have sent the deceased’s body for further examination through an autopsy.
