A CRPF jawan was reported killed after a sand-laden lorry hit a van on the main road between Pasra and the Tadvai forest check post in Telangana’s Mulugu district on Thursday, according to Deccan Chronicle. The lorry then rammed into a car carrying two revenue department employees, who suffered serious injuries.
The report said the crash occurred after the lorry allegedly travelled at high speed and was driven rashly. These details were described as part of the initial account, and the cause of the collision has not been independently established in the supplied material.
The lorry driver fled the scene after the crash. Police reached the location and shifted the injured revenue department employees to a nearby hospital, according to the report.
A case was registered under relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and police launched a search for the driver. The report did not identify the injured employees, name the deceased CRPF jawan or provide details about the hospital where the injured persons were admitted.
The casualty figure requires clarification before publication as a confirmed death toll. The supplied article body states that one CRPF jawan died, while the article URL refers to two CRPF jawans being killed. No official police statement, hospital confirmation or other primary document was included in the material provided for review.
The incident highlights the safety risks on roads used by heavy vehicles in forest and revenue-administration areas, but the supplied report does not provide information on the lorry’s ownership, transport permits, enforcement history, road conditions or whether any safety restrictions applied to sand transport on the route. Police action against the driver and confirmation of the final casualty figures are the next reported steps.
