Hardoi (Uttar Pradesh), Nov 25 (IANS) Five people lost their lives, and four persons sustained injuries in a horrific road accident at the Gorai intersection in the Mallawan police station area of Uttar Pradesh’s Hardoi district in the early hours of Monday.
The accident occurred at around 3 A.M. when a high-speed Bolero, returning from a wedding ceremony, collided with a private bus parked at the intersection. The bus was also carrying members of a wedding party.
The impact of the collision was so severe that the front portion of the Bolero was completely crushed, leading to chaos and screams at the scene of the accident.
Upon receiving information, local police rushed to the site and initiated rescue operations. The injured were promptly admitted to the nearest hospital.
According to Additional Superintendent of Police, East, Nripendra Kumar, the Bolero appeared to have lost control before hitting the stationary bus.

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister also instructed officials to expedite relief and rescue operations at the site and provide all necessary support to the victims’ families.

Such accidents become common as the winter months approach, leading to major fog on the roads, resulting in poor visibility.
