A horrific road accident occurred on the Lucknow-Agra Highway in Kannauj, Uttar Pradesh earlier today. Five people died in this accident, including a doctor working at Saifai Medical College. The condition of the sole survivor is critical. He is currently undergoing treatment in the hospital. All the deceased were residents of different districts of the state.
The deceased Santosh Kumar was a laboratory technician at Saifai Medical College. While the deceased Rakesh Kumar was a shopkeeper. All the other deceased were studying medicine after studying MBBS. Arun, 34, a resident of Teramallu, Kannauj, who lost his life in this accident, was also working as a doctor after studying MBBS at Saifai Medical College and was studying medicine.
According to information, Arun’s father is a farmer. Arun has four siblings in total. There are also 6 sisters among the four brothers. Arun was not married yet. Arun’s brother studies medicine in Kanpur. The sisters also continue their studies in different places.
He did not marry out of responsibility.
After receiving information about the accident, there was mourning in Arun’s family. Younger brother Pawan Kumar, who is studying medicine in Kanpur, said Arun was responsible for the education of our brothers and the marriage of our sisters. When we talked to him about marriage, he used to say that I will complete my medical studies and then get married.
The matter remained in mind, otherwise his life would have been saved.
Pawan said that he had spoken to his brother Arun in the evening. Arun said he had come to a wedding in Lucknow with friends. In such a situation, it occurred to Pawan that he should tell brother Arun to return slowly, if he comes late he should stay in Lucknow and leave in the morning, but this remained in his mind. Finally something unfortunate happened.
I went to the wedding at the insistence of friends.
The deceased’s brother Pawan said that Arun did not feel like going to Lucknow for the wedding, but his medical college friends were going to the wedding, who insisted that he go to the wedding. Obliged, Arun agreed. When we spoke on phone, Arun was present at the wedding ceremony and said that he had come to the wedding ceremony on the insistence of his friends and would return that same evening.
Pawan further said that he was looking forward to meeting his brother, he had thought that he would return home from Kanpur tomorrow itself, but he did not know that such an accident would happen. Now there is uproar in the family.
He was responsible for the marriage of 6 sisters.
Pawan, brother of late Arun, said that we have 6 sisters among four brothers. Parallel to our studies, Arun had taken responsibility for the marriage of 6 sisters. After studying MBBS, he studied medicine from Saifai Medical College itself. With the income I earned there, I used to cover the expenses of our education. When it came time to get married, he used to say that he would marry his sisters first and then take care of his own.
