Couple Dies After 8-Hour Wait for Help on Delhi-Mumbai Expressway
A couple from Delhi was traveling in their car when they were hit twice by other vehicles on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.
The first hit was by a dumper truck, and the second was by a speeding Maruti Ertiga, both of which did not stop to help.
The couple's car was badly damaged, and they were left bleeding inside for about eight hours while many cars passed by.
No one noticed or helped them.
The family is very sad and angry because they believe the authorities should have helped the couple sooner.
They feel that the couple did not deserve to die like this, and even if they had survived with injuries, the family would have taken care of them.
A Delhi couple, Lacchi Ram (42) and Kusum Lata (38), died after being left unattended for 8 hours following a collision on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.
The couple's Wagon-R was hit twice in 22 minutes by a dumper truck and a speeding Maruti Ertiga, with neither driver stopping to help.
The damaged car with the injured couple inside lay on the expressway for nearly 8 hours while hundreds of vehicles passed by.
The family demands answers, questioning the negligence and the absence of highway patrols.
The victims' father expressed his grief, stating that his son and daughter-in-law did not deserve such an end.
