How the accident happened

The accident took place on a flyover near the Police Lines area in Jalandhar, Punjab. According to Mid-Day, the Volkswagen carrying Vidit and Aarav Talwar was travelling from BMC Chowk towards BSF Chowk when it crashed into a Municipal Corporation tractor-trolley parked on the flyover. The impact proved fatal for both friends, who died at the spot. There were three other people in the car, all of whom survived and reportedly returned home after the accident.

Police were informed about the crash at around 3 am and reached the spot shortly afterwards. Baradari police station SHO Sahil Chaudhary confirmed the development. The tractor-trolley had reportedly been left on the flyover by sanitation workers who were cleaning the area and collecting garbage when the car rammed into it.

An investigation was initiated to establish the circumstances leading to the accident. However, according to reports, the families decided against pursuing further legal action. The bodies were later handed over to the families for the last rites.
