Chamba
Late on Wednesday evening, a car lost control and plunged into a deep ditch close to the village of Nikhaju on the Tarela-Bowderi-Mangali route in the Churah district. Brijlal, a native of village Bouderi in tehsil Churah, district Chamba, and the son of teacher Khemraj, perished instantly in the tragedy. Khemraj was reportedly on his way back to his village for some personal business when his vehicle abruptly lost control close to Nikhaju and plunged into the ditch.
Khemraj passed away immediately after the horrific collision, which left the automobile totally wrecked. The local people arrived at the scene and alerted the police as soon as they learned of the accident. Khemraj’s body was removed from the ditch and transferred to Civil Hospital Chamba for a post-mortem with the assistance of the police and administration.
