Boulder Crushes GHMC Truck in Malkajgiri, No Injuries Reported
Imagine a giant rock decided to go for a slide down a hill in a neighborhood in Hyderabad.
Unfortunately for a garbage truck, the rock landed right on top of it!
Luckily, the truck was parked and no one was inside, so no one got hurt.
Residents are worried because another big rock is wobbly on the hill and might fall next.
City workers used special tools to break up the first rock and move it so people could drive again.
They also said they will try to make sure the other rock doesn't fall and cause more trouble.
A large boulder fell from a hill and crushed a GHMC garbage truck in Malkajgiri's Mallikarjunanagar.
The incident occurred on Thursday, and fortunately, there were no injuries as the truck was parked at the time.
Residents have expressed concern over another boulder precariously perched on the hill, posing a threat to life and property.
HYDRAA's Disaster Response Force removed the fallen boulder using power tools, clearing the road.
Authorities have stated they will take measures to prevent the other boulder from falling and mentioned plans to secure the land where former trash collectors resided.
