Fatal collision on the bypass

At around 7.15 pm local time, an eeco vehicle carrying a group of laborers on a short‑haul route collided head‑on with a truck traveling eastward on the KMP Expressway in Sonipat. The impact caused the eeco vehicle to overturn and partially roll, trapping the occupants inside.

Loss of life and injuries

Three workers on the eeco vehicle died at the scene, while nine others associated with the incident—six from the eeco vehicle and three from the truck—suffered injuries ranging from minor to severe. Emergency responders reached the scene within minutes and administered first aid before transporting the wounded to nearby hospitals.

Police investigation underway

The Sonipat Police Crime Branch has sealed the accident site and began a preliminary investigation to determine the cause of the collision. Initial statements from witnesses suggest that the truck driver may have lost control while attempting to overtake a slow‑moving vehicle on the shoulder.
