Mishap claims 6

Ashoknagar, MP, Feb 18 (UNI) Five members of a tribal family returning from a wedding were among six persons who died after their auto-rickshaw was rammed head on by a dumper on the Ashoknagar-Vidisha road about a kilometre from a toll barrier and approximately 10 km from here, law enforcement authorities said.
The incident occurred late Sunday. Though the dumper driver sped away, closed-circuit television footage helped identify the vehicle. The collision was so severe that the auto landed roughly 20 ft away in a farm. The family, which perished on the spot, hailed from Seji village and the driver - who succumbed at the District Hospital - was from Pahada village. The deceased were identified as Rajkumar Adivasi (15), Sheela, Bhaiyyalal, Kailash (all 35), Vati (40) and Barelal Ahirwar (35). Ex gratia of Rs 15,000 was sanctioned by the Tribal Welfare Department and Rs 5,000 for funerary arrangements.
