aa truck driver gaadini 
Hyderabad, Aug. 11: A mini-truck mowed into a group of four-year-old nursery students of St Ann’s High School returning home after school, killing one girl instantly and injuring four of her friends, three of them seriously. The tiny tots were crossing the Sardar Patel Road with their driver, Mohammed Pasha, to take the school van home at 1 pm. A mini-truck, loaded with marble slabs, bore down on the group that began waving desperately for the driver to stop.
The road has a divider separating traffic, and the section of road is barely 15 metres at that point. The group was trying to reach the safety of the barrier, scrambling out of harm’s way. But it was too late. The killer vehicle ran over Reetika and her young friend Rajeshwari. Reetika died on the spot, while doctors are struggling to save Rajeshwari’s severely damaged leg. Drisha Reddy has a lacerated face and bruises sustained when the vehicle brushed past her. Ayesha and Tapasvi were the other girls injured, along with their school van driver, Mr Pasha.
The kids were heading for a long weekend, with holidays on Friday (Varamahalakshmi vratam), second Saturday, Sunday and Independence Day on Monday.’ Ironically, a traffic police constable, Ramulanna, posted at the spot to control traffic during school hours was a mere spectator. He was ensconsed by the police and was not available for comments. The traffic department is unwilling to explain how Mr Ramulanna failed to control traffic, leading to the gruesome accident.
Recalling those horrific moments at Yashoda Hospital where she was admitted, Tapasvi, 5, said, “We raised our hands to stop the truck but it did not. The truck was on top of my friend Reetika. I hope she is fine.” Tapasvi is yet to find out that her fried Reetika is no more.G. Rajaiah, an autorickshaw driver who witnessed the incident, said that he saw Mr Pasha waving to the oncoming driver while holding on to the bags of the children. “The van was coming at high speed,” he said. “It hit them and dragged them for about 20 feet.”
Rithika was the daughter of Mrs Lakshmi Rajyam, a lecturer in Kasturba College. Her father is a business manager in IDBI. “She was a sweet girl, the only child of the couple,” said her grief-stricken uncle Purnachandra Rao. “She used to come to my house every Sunday to play with my daughter.” Ms Marie, a teacher of St Ann’s, said that the school had recommended that a speed breaker be put up on the road, but the authorities did not show any interest. Rajeshwari and Ayesha were admitted in Yashoda hospital. Rithika’s body was shifted to Gandhi Hospital morgue for autopsy. Gopalpuram police arrested the driver and seized the van.
A pal of gloom descended on Yashoda Hospital in Secunderabad where four little girls of St. Ann’s School who were hit by a speeding DCM truck on Thursday afternoon are writhing in pain. Sad scenes were witnessed as scores of visitors broke down on seeing the plight of the girls. While four-year-old N Rithika died on the spot, others — Rajshri, Drisha Reddy, Tapasvi and Ayesha — were rushed to the hospital with various degrees of injuries. All, except Ayesha, who was discharged after first aid, have been admitted.
Parents of five-year-old Rajshri, whose right leg was smashed in the accident, were in a state of shock and vented their ire at the authorities. “The accident occurred right in-front of the traffic cop. How callous are the authorities?” yelled an inconsolable Mr S. Nagendra Rao, Rajshri’s father. The causality ward of the hospital reverberated with cries of “I want daddy, I want daddy... it hurts,” from four-year-old Drisha Reddy, whose face and lips were badly bruised when the truck grazed past her. The plastic surgeons of the hospital will have their hands full when they start operating her. |
