A horrific head-on collision between a truck and a motorcycle in Mirzapur has left two youths dead and one fighting for his life.
A devastating Mirzapur road accident has claimed the lives of two young men and left a third fighting for survival. The tragedy unfolded on Friday near the Panwari Kalan plantation bridge, falling under the jurisdiction of the Haliya police station, when a motorcycle collided head-on with a heavy truck.
The Fatal Collision
The victims, all residents of Banjari Kalan village in the Drummondganj police station area, were traveling from the direction of the Garbada bridge. The group consisted of 25-year-old Ramshringar Verma, who was operating the motorcycle, his 20-year-old brother Neta, and their neighbor, 20-year-old Babulesh Kol.
Their journey came to a violent end when they crashed into a truck that was returning toward Mirzapur after unloading fertilizer from the Sikta Sadhan Sahkari Samiti. The impact was catastrophic; Ramshringar Verma was run over by the truck's tires and died instantly at the scene.
Rescue Efforts and Medical Emergency
Following the crash, Haliya Police Station House Officer (SHO) Rajiv Kumar Srivastava reached the spot with a police team. With the help of local villagers, the two remaining victims, Neta and Babulesh Kol, were rushed via ambulance to the Primary Health Center (PHC) in Haliya.
However, the efforts to save them were only partially successful. Dr. Vimal Kumar at the PHC declared Babulesh Kol dead upon arrival. Neta, who remains in critical condition, received primary medical attention before being referred to the Divisional Hospital for urgent care.

The police have taken the bodies of the deceased into custody for post-mortem examinations and have launched a manhunt to track down the absconding driver and the truck.
