Jaipur, India – Three individuals sustained injuries following a multi-vehicle collision in Jaipur involving a speeding Endeavour SUV, which police confirmed is registered to the wife of former Minister Ashok Chandna. The incident saw the Endeavour first crash into an already overturned Thar SUV before colliding with an e-rickshaw.
According to police statements, the Endeavour was travelling at an excessive speed when the accident occurred. The vehicle, linked to the former minister's wife, has a record of approximately two dozen traffic challans, or violation tickets, for various infractions. The Thar SUV involved in the incident also has a history of traffic offences, with six over-speeding challans recorded against it.
The collision sequence began when the Endeavour, approaching from the opposite direction, struck the Thar, which had reportedly overturned prior to the impact. Following this, the Endeavour then collided with an e-rickshaw, leading to the injuries of three people. The specific nature and severity of the injuries were not immediately detailed by authorities.
Local law enforcement officials are continuing their investigation into the exact circumstances surrounding the accident. The incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding road safety and adherence to traffic regulations in the region, particularly concerning vehicles with documented histories of violations.
