NEW DELHI: Two young women lost their lives after a speeding BMW car driving in the wrong direction collided with their scooter in Indore. According to police reports , the driver of the car immediately fled the scene following the accident.
The authorities have registered a case against both the vehicle's owner and the driver, and efforts are underway to arrest the accused.
The tragic event occurred in the Khajrana area as Lakshmi Tomar and Diksha Jadon were on their way home after visiting the popular Khajrana Ganesh temple fair, the PTI reported.
Witnesses reported that the BMW car crashed into their scooter, causing both women to be thrown onto the road. Despite being rushed to a nearby hospital, their injuries were too severe, and they succumbed to them.
Manoj Singh Sendhav, the in-charge of the Khajrana police station, confirmed the details of the incident, saying, "Due to the impact, both women sustained critical injuries and unfortunately succumbed to them."
Lakshmi Tomar, who hailed from Shivpuri, had been the primary provider for her family since her father's passing last year. She had relocated to Indore to support them. Diksha Jadon, a resident of Gwalior, was employed at a public sector bank in Indore.
This accident comes months after a similar high-profile case that occurred earlier this year in Pune. On May 19, a Porsche driven by a minor under the influence of alcohol collided with a two-wheeler, resulting in the deaths of two IT professionals. Initially, the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) granted bail to the teenager, requiring him to write a 300-word essay on road safety . However, following significant public outcry, the JJB reconsidered its decision, and the juvenile was sent to an observation home.
