Father-son killed, grand daughter injured in Araria

A man and his son died, while his grand daughter was seriously injured when a truck rammed into their motorcycle on NH- 57 today. 

Forbesganj Sub-divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Ajit Kumar Singh said the deceased have been identified as Bhuvan Jha (50) and Suman Jha (25). 

Bhuvan’s three-year old grand daughter has been admitted at a government hospital. 

Agitated over the accident, villagers 

blocked the NH-57 for several hours and damaged a few vehicles, as the truck sped away, the SDPO said. 

The blockade was lifted after police and officials reached the spot.
