Fatal Accident on Etawah-Bareilly Highway

Farrukhabad, November 10, 2026 – A devastating road accident occurred on the Etawah-Bareilly highway in Farrukhabad on Tuesday afternoon, resulting in the tragic death of a woman en route to celebrate Bhai Dooj. An uncontrolled, speeding Eco car collided with a motorcycle parked by the roadside near Baghar, severely injuring the family on the bike.

The victim, identified as 45-year-old Suman, succumbed to her injuries. Her husband, Dinesh, and their 10-year-old daughter, Pallavi, sustained serious injuries in the crash. Suman was traveling with her husband and daughter to her brother-in-law Rajesh's home in Chachupur, within the limits of Ragepur police station, to celebrate Bhai Dooj on Wednesday.

Circumstances of the Crash

Eyewitnesses reported that Dinesh had stopped their motorcycle on the roadside near Baghar because Pallavi felt hungry. At that moment, a high-speed Eco car approaching from behind violently struck their bike. The impact was so severe that Suman sustained critical head injuries and suffered significant blood loss.

Heroic Rescue Attempt Amidst Tragedy

Despite his own leg injuries, the gravely wounded Dinesh desperately tried to save his wife. He removed his shirt and used it to bandage Suman's wounds in an attempt to stem the bleeding. He then immediately transported his injured wife and daughter to Lohia Hospital via e-rickshaw.

Hospital Efforts and Family's Grief

Doctors in the emergency ward of the hospital made strenuous efforts to save Suman, but she could not be revived due to excessive blood loss. She was pronounced dead by the medical staff. Dinesh, who earns a living by running a cart in the village, is now plunged into grief on what should have been a joyous occasion. The family is inconsolable, and a pall of sorrow has descended upon the entire village.

Police Investigation Underway

The police have registered a case and are investigating the causes of the accident. Traffic was disrupted for some time in the area following the collision.
