Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh: A pickup driver perished in a fiery collision on the Delhi-Mumbai expressway near Thandla on Friday night. The pickup and truck collided head-on, setting both vehicles ablaze and trapping the driver inside. Police confirmed the 30-year-old victim as Teru Khima Bhabar, a Miyati resident.
