MUKTSAR, Punjab – A young patwari, Sandeep Singh, tragically lost his life in a horrific collision between a speeding truck and his car on Bathinda Road in the Giddarbaha block of Muktsar district on Thursday night. This devastating accident, just two days after his wedding, has plunged his family and village into profound grief.
Sandeep, son of Sompal Singh from Kotbhai village, was returning home after dropping off the sherwani he wore for his wedding ceremony. Traveling in his Swift Desire, he met his untimely demise near Bhisiana on Bathinda Road when a reckless truck driver slammed into his car.
The impact was so severe that Sandeep succumbed to his injuries at the scene. The news of his sudden death sent shockwaves through the village, with many still in disbelief. The wedding tent, a symbol of joy just days ago, now stands as a stark reminder of the tragedy.
Adding to the pain, Sandeep’s father had also passed away, and he had secured the patwari position in the revenue department on compassionate grounds. This double loss has left the family reeling, facing not only the grief of losing a son but also the uncertainty of their future.
Local authorities are investigating the accident, and the truck driver is absconding. The community is rallying around Sandeep’s family in this difficult time, offering support and prayers.
