Tragic Accidental Deaths During Immersion Procession:
The atmosphere of celebration and festivity during the Ganesh idol immersion procession turned tragic as four young boys met untimely deaths in separate accidents. These four heart-wrenching incidents occurred during the procession, leaving their families devastated.
In the first incident, a four-year-old boy fell from a moving truck, sustaining severe head injuries, and ultimately succumbing to them.
Shabaz, a 24-year-old from Bandlaguda, was accompanying his friends when he fell from the vehicle carrying the idol at Basheerbagh around 3 a.m. on Friday. He was tragically crushed under the vehicle’s wheels, sustaining severe injuries. Despite receiving medical treatment at Osmania General Hospital, he sadly passed away.
In another tragic incident, 17-year-old Puneeth from Bahadurpura fell from the vehicle and lost his life on Thursday midnight on PVNR Marg. While returning home, Puneeth and two other boys alighted from the vehicle to attend to nature’s call. Tragically, as he tried to re-enter the vehicle, he slipped and fell on the road, succumbing to his injuries on the spot.
