Tragic Road Accident Near Madhya Pradesh CM’s Event Kills Three, Injures Others
A heartbreaking road crash shook Sidhi district in Madhya Pradesh on Thursday evening, claiming three lives and leaving three people in critical condition. The accident happened right near the spot where Chief Minister Mohan Yadav was holding a public programme on National Highway 39, between Sidhi and Singrauli.
It all unfolded around 7:30 PM when a speeding SUV slammed into a stationary truck parked by the roadside. The truck was loaded with tents meant for the CM’s event and had no clear warning signs, as per early reports. The crash was so powerful that two passengers in the SUV died on the spot.
A third person later lost their battle with injuries, while the remaining three survivors suffered severe trauma. Rescuers rushed them to a hospital in Rewa for urgent treatment.
Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav shared his grief over the Madhya Pradesh road accident. In a late-night statement, he said, "I pray to Baba Mahakal for peace to the departed souls and strength for the grieving families." He quickly instructed the Sidhi district administration to provide top-notch medical care to the injured and keep a close watch on their recovery.
Police revealed that the SUV belonged to Jagdish Jaiswal from Jethula village, and his son Prince Jaiswal was behind the wheel. Prince started the trip with just two passengers, but four more joined along the way, making it six people in total. Sources say the vehicle was zooming at high speed when it hit the parked truck, just outside the CM’s event venue.
Local teams reached the scene fast to handle the chaos and get help to the victims. This Sidhi road accident has spotlighted big worries about traffic safety and roadside precautions, especially during major events like the Chief Minister’s programmes.
The tragedy has dampened the mood of the day’s official activities and renewed demands for tougher rules on highway safety in Madhya Pradesh. For now, officials haven’t pinned down if negligence caused the crash, but investigations are underway.
