The incident was reported on Monday, December 9 at 3:15 am near Lamjewadi on Baramati-Bigwan road in Pune district. Two trainee pilots Aditya Kanase and Takshu Sharma 21 from Delhi had died on the day of the accident.

However, car driver Krishna Ishu Singh 21 and Chesta Bishnoi were injured and were shifted to hospital.

According to Bhigwan police, at the time of the accident, the four individuals—all trainee pilots—were travelling in a car from Baramati toward Bhigwan when the driver lost control near Lamjewadi.
