Gondal: An accident occurred in the early hours of this morning on the Rajkot National Highway in Gondal, resulting in the deaths of four youths in a head-on collision between two cars. According to police reports, three individuals died at the scene, while one succumbed to injuries during treatment at a nearby hospital.

Eyewitness accounts indicate that the driver of a car traveling from Rajkot to Dhoraji suddenly lost control of the steering wheel near Gondal, leading to a head-on crash with an oncoming Bolero SUV. Emergency responders, including police and a 108 ambulance team, arrived at the accident site after receiving information about the collision.

The impact of the crash was so severe that both vehicles were completely crushed. According to details, the Swift car (GJ.03 LG.5119) was heading toward Dhoraji from Rajkot when the driver lost control, hit the divider, and collided with the Bolero (GJ.03 ML.2444), which was traveling from Sandhiya Pul Chowkdi in Gondal to Gundala Chowkdi. Both vehicles overturned.

Authorities have confirmed that the deceased include two youths from Gondal and two from Dhoraji. Their bodies have been transferred to Gondal Civil Hospital for post-mortem examinations. The police have registered a case of accident and are currently conducting a thorough investigation to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the incident.

Among the four deceased, the two youths in the Bolero were Siddharajsingh Mahendrasinh Jhala (35) and Kripal Singh Harbhamsingh Jadeja (39), both from Gondal. The youths in the Swift car were Viren Deshurbhai Karamta and Siddharth Kishorebhai Kacha, both from Dhoraji.

According to sources, the high speed of the Swift car caused it to collide with the divider, leading to the Bolero overturning as the Swift landed on top of it. The Swift then flipped about 20 feet away, with its engine separating from the vehicle, resulting in total loss of the car. DeshGujarat
