Gurugram Hit-and-Run Victim Vows to Fight for Justice
Sia was riding a motorcycle in Gurugram when a car hit her and drove away.
She says the driver, Kalyan Bainsla, was driving dangerously and may have been drunk.
She also says he knew she was a woman and deliberately came close to her bike.
Bainsla has given a different account and says people have only heard Sia’s side.
The incident was recorded on video.
Police have formed five teams to find him and are checking security-camera footage.
Sia says she wants justice and wants women bikers to feel safer.
Her father also says the family will keep working until the accused is punished.
Sia said a sedan rammed her motorcycle in Gurugram and fled, calling it a deliberate hit-and-run and attempted murder.
She accused driver Kalyan Bainsla of driving while intoxicated, violating traffic rules and targeting her after allegedly signalling her to stop.
Bainsla disputed her account, saying he did not know the rider was a woman and that only one side of the incident had been shown.
Gurugram police said they formed five teams to locate Bainsla and are reviewing CCTV footage from Golf Course Road.
Sia and her father said they would continue pursuing the case, criticising what they described as an unequal response to traffic violations involving bikers.
