Last night on Saharanpur, Lakhnore Sidki Road, a Max pickup went out of control after hitting an electric pole standing in the middle of the road and crashed into a tree standing in the middle of the road. The driver of the vehicle, Anwar son of Sheikhpura Abdul Latif, was injured in the accident. As soon as the power pole broke, the power line tied to the pole broke and fell into the middle of the road, causing queues for both vehicles. While sending the injured driver to the hospital, the police called the electrical workers on the spot and made the road smooth by moving aside the electrical wires lying on the road. According to the information received At around 1 o'clock in the night, a Max pickup laden with chickens was going from Lakhnore towards Sidki. Near Saidpura, the driver could not see an electric pole standing in the middle of the road, due to which the vehicle broke the electric pole and collided with a tree and got damaged. As soon as the electric pole broke, the electric wires tied to the pole broke and fell in the middle of the road. Due to which lines of vehicles formed on both sides of the road. It was fortunate that no vehicle came under the influence of power lines. Due to which a major accident was also averted. This road was also widened about two weeks ago. The electric poles and trees standing on the roadside had come in the middle of the road, the department did not consider it appropriate to remove them before building the road and made the road by taking the trees and electric poles in between. Due to which accidents are happening every day on this route. On April 27, 22-year-old Arju, resident of Jhabreda, who was riding a car, collided with a pole, on April 30, about 14-year-old Kishore Tanish, resident of Lakhnore, collided with an electric pole standing in the middle of the road and on May 6, a mentally retarded woman was hit by a bike that went out of control after hitting a tree. About 40 year old Geeta, a resident of Kota, has lost her life. Apart from this, pedestrians have been injured in about a dozen accidents, yet the department is not ready to remove the electric poles and trees standing in the middle of the road. Perhaps the department is waiting for a major accident./
