Guwahati: Road Accident Caused Due To Loose Soil In Jalukbari, No Injuries Reported

GUWAHATI: A road accident occurred in Guwahati's Jalukbari area on January 3 at approximately 11:40 PM, reportedly due to loose soil on the main road.

An eyewitness reported that a car skidded on the loose soil and collided with a parked vehicle. Another vehicle also lost grip on the slippery surface but regained control just in time, narrowly avoiding an accident. No individual has been reported to be injured in the accident. Further details are awaited.

Meanwhile, a devastating road accident in the Kanishail area of Assam's Sribhumi district left one school girl dead and another critically injured after a speeding truck lost control and struck the two sisters walking along the roadside.

The incident occurred when the truck, reportedly traveling at reckless speed, veered off its course and collided with Humaiya Siddiqui and Hafsa Siddiqui. Tragically, Humaiya succumbed to her injuries on the spot, while Hafsa was rushed to Sribhumi Hospital, where she remained in critical condition.

In an another similar incident, the start of 2025 had been overshadowed by tragedy as a fatal road accident claimed one life and left four others critically injured. A group of five friends and family members from the Uttar Krishnapur area of Silchar had set out to celebrate the New Year near the Borail Hills in Dima Hasao.

While traveling from Silchar to Haflong, their vehicle, a Bolero, lost control near Ditokcherra on the Silchar-Haflong road and collided head-on with an approaching truck.
