Police said the labourers were going to Srinagar to work in brick kilns. “At 5.30am, the vehicle on its way to Srinagar from Jammu carrying labourers met with an accident and plunged into a deep gorge near Khooni Nallah,” said Ramban’s senior police superintendent PD Nitya. Four people were rescued that including a two-year-old child, who succumbed to his injuries at a hospital. “Prima facie, it appears the driver was speeding and lost control over the vehicle,” he said.
