  "account": "A 36-year-old Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) jawan named Muguram Ramakanth lost his life on the spot, while five others were injured following an accident on National Highway 163 in Telangana's Mulugu district. The incident occurred around 10 a.m. on Thursday, October 8, 2026, near the Pasra Forest Check Post in Govindaraopet mandal.\n\nThe lorry involved in the accident was sand-laden and lost control, first colliding with a goods carrier on the Pasra–Tadvai stretch. Ramakanth, who was attached to CRPF’s 39th Battalion, succumbed to his injuries immediately. Three other CRPF jawans—Girish Kumar, Prem Prakash, and Ram Jan Prasad— sustained injuries in the initial collision.\n\nFollowing the first impact, the lorry veered into a car traveling behind the CRPF vehicle, injuring two government employees. Thankfully, both victims were later reported to be out of danger. The exact cause of the accident is still under investigation, with further details awaited. The CRPF jawan's death has sent shockwaves through the community, with condolences pouring in for the young soldier.",
