A tragic accident in a Gurgaon village has resulted in the death of a 50-year-old man after the tractor he was driving overturned. The incident occurred in Hasanpur village under the jurisdiction of the Badshahpur police station.
Details of the Fatal Incident
The victim, identified as Ajay, a resident of Hasanpur village, was carrying out routine work on Friday evening. He was driving a tractor attached to a trolley within the village limits. According to the police report, the accident happened when the coupling connecting the tractor to its trolley suddenly broke. This failure caused the vehicle to go out of control, veer off its path, and ultimately overturn.
Rescue Efforts and Medical Response
Alerted by the crash, nearby villagers rushed to the scene. They managed to pull Ajay out from under the heavy tractor. He had sustained severe injuries in the rollover. The locals immediately transported him to a nearby hospital for urgent medical attention. Unfortunately, the doctors at the medical facility could not save him and declared him dead upon arrival.
An autopsy was conducted on Saturday to determine the exact cause of death. The post-mortem examination confirmed that Ajay died due to a broken neck bone, an injury he sustained while being trapped under the overturned vehicle.
Police Investigation and Aftermath
Sub-inspector Ankit from the SPR police post stated that the case is being treated as a tragic accident. The preliminary investigation found no suspicious circumstances or foul play involved in the event. After the necessary legal and medical procedures were completed, Ajay's body was handed over to his grieving family members to perform the last rites.
This accident has cast a pall of sorrow over Hasanpur village and serves as a grim reminder of the potential dangers associated with agricultural and transport vehicles, especially when mechanical failures occur. It underscores the importance of regular vehicle maintenance and safety checks in rural areas.
