Laughing silent, devotion turned into mourning
A group of 45 devotees who went to Khatushyam from Etah (Uttar Pradesh) were returning to two pickup trains. At night, when all were sleepy, a pickup van was uncontrolled near Bapi village in Dausa and entered the container standing on the roadside. The collision was so severe that after hearing the voice, the people around stood up. According to eyewitnesses, “This voice was like a bomb explosion. After this, the screams of children and women started to hear.” These screams were not only of pain, but also about the expectations and dreams of those families.
The scene after the accident was heartbreaking. Blood was scattered all around. The injured were lying on each other. Out of the 25 people present in the pickup, 10 died on the spot, while one breathed his last in the hospital. 14 people are badly injured in this accident, who are undergoing treatment.
Silence in the house of 4 families
This accident has wreaked havoc on 4 families. The men who had happily left their wives and children to see Khatushyam, now they had only their lifeless bodies in front of them. Eyewitnesses said, “When the men riding in another pickup reached the spot and saw their family members, they were insensitive. Some were crying with their child in the lap, someone was trying to lift his wife.” These were the men, whose biggest support of life, his wife and children’s laughter had become silent forever. There is now only mourning and emptiness of men in his house.
‘Over speed’ and ‘negligence’ became time
Initial investigation by the police has revealed that this painful accident occurred due to a nap to the driver and over speed. However, another shocking revelation has surfaced. In the pickup van, the driver had put two wooden tits on the back to make more riders. Some people were sitting down, while some were above the pits. The collision was so tremendous that the people sitting behind entered the container directly, due to which such a large number of deaths occurred. If the driver had not been negligent and had not juggled to sit more passengers, then perhaps the lives of these 11 people could have been saved.
‘Where am I, what has happened?’
- When a woman who was injured in the accident took care of her, she did not know what happened to her, she was asking people again and again, “Where am I, what has happened?” Fear and confusion were clearly visible in his eyes. But, when she came to know that she had lost many of her loved ones in front of her eyes, she also started crying bitterly. This incident in Dausa has once again proved how the negligence on the streets takes the innocent lives. This accident is a lesson for all those who allow speed and negligence to dominate their lives.
- This painful scene is a deep shock not only for these families, but also for humanity. Will we take lessons from this incident and will stop such tragedies in future?
