Three injured after speeding SUV of former Minister's wife hits e-rickshaw in Jaipur

The Endeavour car registered in the name of former Minister Ashok Chandna's wife has about two dozen traffic challans, whereas the Thar has six over-speeding challans, the SHO said

Three individuals were injured on Sunday night when a speeding SUV belonging to the wife of a former Minister collided with an e-rickshaw in Jaipur, according to police reports. The incident occurred near the Mansarovar Metro station after the Thar vehicle overturned while making a turn from Gurjar Ki Thadi. The Endeavour car then struck the overturned vehicle before crashing into the e-rickshaw, causing it to travel about 50 feet away.

The three injured labourers, identified as Shankar Singh, Mukesh Jawali, and Umashankar, were taken to SMS Hospital, with one of them in critical condition. The SUV, registered under the name of the former Minister's wife, had accumulated over two dozen traffic violations, while the Thar had six over-speeding violations. Both vehicles' occupants fled the scene, leaving the vehicles behind. Police have seized the vehicles and are reviewing CCTV footage to identify the drivers.
