Both crashes involved passenger vehicles colliding with heavy trucks—one near Baharagora and another by the Badkitand forest.
Details of the 2 accidents
In the early hours of Friday, a car heading from Kolkata to Jamshedpur crashed into a heavy vehicle near Baharagora, claiming three lives: Ganesh Roy (50) from Kolkata, and Kusumita Patnaik (55) with her daughter Monika (28) from Jamshedpur.
Later, a speeding truck hit a passenger vehicle on the Giridih-Dhanbad Main Road near Badkitand forest. This second accident killed Jagdish, Nandkishore, and Kamal Bhokta—all from Mankadiha village—and left six others injured.
