A tragic accident on the Gurgaon-Faridabad Road claimed the lives of two brothers and left their two sisters severely injured as the siblings traveled to observe the traditional festival of Rakhi. The victims were struck by a speeding utility vehicle while standing near a roadside bus stop.
The festive journey turned into a disaster when a Toyota Fortuner plowed into the group of four siblings. Witnesses and authorities confirmed that the vehicle was moving at a high rate of speed before the collision occurred.

Emergency responders rushed the victims to a nearby medical facility. Medical personnel at the BK Civil Hospital pronounced the two brothers dead upon arrival. The surviving sisters sustained critical injuries and received initial stabilization before being transferred to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences Trauma Centre in New Delhi for advanced specialized care.
