TSRTC driver receives Rs 50 lakh insurance after losing leg
M.D. Madar is a bus driver who works for a big bus company called the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation, or TSRTC.
One day, while he was driving his bus, it crashed into a big truck on a flyover.
The accident happened on October 9, 2025, and it hurt his right leg very badly.
Doctors did surgery to try to save his leg, but sadly they had to remove it.
Because he had a special bank account with Union Bank of India that came with insurance, he got money to help him.
That money was 50 lakh rupees, which is a very, very large amount.
A leader from the bus company gave him the money cheque at a special ceremony in Hyderabad.
His wife and two children were with him at the ceremony.
Madar thanked the bus company and the bank for supporting him during this hard time.
TSRTC driver M.D. Madar received a Rs 50 lakh insurance payout after losing his right leg in an on-duty road accident.
The accident occurred on October 9, 2025, when the bus he was driving (TS 02 Z 0400) collided with a lorry on the Kukunoorpally flyover.
Madar suffered severe injuries to his right leg, underwent surgery, and doctors later had to amputate the limb.
He was eligible for the cover through his Super Salary Account with Union Bank of India, held under an agreement with TSRTC.
TSRTC Vice-Chairman and Managing Director Y. Nagireddy handed over the Rs 50 lakh cheque at Bus Bhavan in Hyderabad, with TSRTC and Union Bank officials in attendance.
