**Headline:** Tragic Accidents on Delhi-Mumbai Expressway Due to Dense Fog
On Monday morning, a thick blanket of fog resulted in a series of road accidents on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway and various roads in Haryana’s Nuh district, claiming the lives of at least two individuals and injuring several others. The most catastrophic incident occurred near Raniyala Patakpur village, where poor visibility caused a significant pile-up involving 10 to 12 vehicles, including two trucks.
Among the deceased was CISF Inspector Harish Kumar, a resident of Ambedkar Nagar in Alwar, who tragically lost his life at the scene. Another victim, identified as Khalil from Jaipur, also succumbed to injuries sustained in the crash. Emergency services reported that four to five additional individuals were injured and subsequently transported to a nearby hospital for medical attention. Following the accidents, police arrived promptly to clear the wreckage, and traffic on the expressway has since resumed normal flow.
In a separate incident near Banarsi village, close to pillar number 45 on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, seven to eight vehicles collided due to the dense fog. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, although several vehicles sustained damage. Another accident occurred on the Delhi-Alwar road near Ghaseda village, where a roadways bus collided with a tractor, but again, no casualties were reported.
The Nuh district has been shrouded in dense fog since early Monday morning, significantly reducing visibility and leading to multiple accidents across various locations on the expressway. Authorities have confirmed two fatalities and reported that more than half a dozen individuals were injured overall.
In light of these incidents, officials are urging motorists to exercise caution, maintain safe speeds, and avoid unnecessary travel during foggy conditions to prevent further accidents.
