A tragic road accident occurred just hours before a wedding at Venkatraopet village in Thoguta mandal early Saturday morning. Mohammad Kasim (73), the father of the groom, lost his life in the accident while traveling for his son Mohammad Nizamuddin’s marriage, which was scheduled for the same day.
The family was on their way from Pragnapur, the bride’s residence, to Manthur in Raipole mandal when the car they were traveling in met with an accident. As they proceeded with marriage rituals, the driver lost control of the vehicle after a wild boar suddenly appeared on the road. The car crashed into a roadside tree, leading to Kasim’s instant death.
Three other family members, including Kasim’s wife, elder son, and grandson, sustained serious injuries in the crash. The family has postponed the marriage due to this heartbreaking incident.
