On the Hoshiarpur road near village Badesron, a truck driver lost his life in a collision between his truck and a tipper. Police have registered a case, conducted a post-mortem and handed over the body to the legal heirs.

The impact was so severe that Jeevan Kumar died on the spot. Following the accident, Garhshankar police seized both vehicles for investigation.
