Hyderabad, Nov 23 (IANS) A youth from Telangana's Nalgonda district has died in a road accident in the United States.
His family has appealed to the Indian government to help in bringing his body home.
According to delayed information reaching his family members, Mandali Shekhar (28) died when a speeding car hit him at Ellicott City in Maryland state on November 19.
The youth, who hailed from Theratigudem village of Gurrampode mandal in Nalgonda district, had gone to the US three years ago and was working as an event manager at a restaurant.
His family members received the information that he was crossing the road after coming out of his office when a speeding car hit him. He was shifted to Howard County General Hospital but by then had succumbed to his injuries.
Shekhar's father M. Muthyalu, a farmer, and mother Komaramma were shocked on receiving the news of his death.
Shekhar has a brother and four sisters. The family has appealed to the state and the central governments to help in bringing home the body of Shekhar.
Leaders of Telugu Association of North America (TANA) and Shekhar's friends have approached the Indian embassy officials, seeking help to send the body to India. The deceased's friends were also raising funds to help his family.
According to Shekhar's relatives after doing intermediate from a junior college in Nalgonda, he did a course in hotel management from a college in Vijayawada.
In 2017, he completed post graduation in hospitality and tourism from a university in Italy and in 2018 went to the United States and joined a hotel as an event manager.
India has urged the ICJ to cancel Kulbhushan Jadhav's death sentence and order his immediate release, saying the verdict by a Pakistani military court was based on a "farcical case".
Arumugam Veerasamy, who was wanted for culpable homicide since 1986, managed to evade authorities for more than 30 years, as his name was misspelt on his work permit and in the police gazette issued against him, reported the Channel News Asia.
The foundation stone of the university was laid by Pakistan's Punjab Chief Minister Usman Buzdar and would be completed with an amount of over Rs. 258 crores spread over 10 acres.
The body of a missing Indian man has been found on the outskirts of Marysville, a town in Australia's Victoria state, five days after he disappeared, police said on Monday.
