Hyderabad, Oct 26 (IANS) Three students from Telugu states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh were killed in a road accident in the US, as per their families.
The casualties occured in a collision between a truck and a mini van in Connecticut state on Tuesday.
According to information reaching the families of the deceased, eight persons were traveling in the mini van. While three persons died on the spot, four others sustained critical injuries while another person received minor injury.
Two of the deceased, including a woman, hail from Telangana while the third victim was from neighbouring Andhra Pradesh.
The deceased were identified as Prem Kumar Reddy (Hyderabad), Pavani (Warangal) and V. Sai Narasimha (East Godavari).
Relatives of Sai Narasimha received the information from his friends that the crash occured between 5 a.m. and 7 a.m. (local time) due to dense fog in the area.
Sai Narasimha, who had gone to the US in August this year, was doing MS. The engineering graduate from Hindustan Engineering College in Chennai was recruited by a company. The 23-year-old later quit the job and enrolled himself for MS in a university in Connecticut.
His parents were shocked on learning about his death. He spoke to them and other family members through a video call to greet them on Diwali.
S. Ishwarya of the same village was lucky to survive the crash with minor injuries.
The families of the deceased have appealed to the governments at the Centre and in the Telugu states to help them in bringing back the bodies.
Matthew Rycroft, the senior-most civil servant at the Home Office, reportedly informed him that he and another officer who had been short-listed for the job that they would not be selected. He is not known to have spelled out a reason for the decision.
Soon after the aircraft went out of contact, the Nepal Army deployed its personnel in the Lete area for search. The plane was carrying 13 Nepalese, four Indians, and two Germans.
In a public session on Monday, WHO's Dr. Rosamund Lewis said it was critical to emphasize that the vast majority of cases being seen in dozens of countries globally are in gay, bisexual or men who have sex with men, so that scientists can further study the issue and for those at risk to be careful.
The incident commander who was on scene during the 45 minutes it took for tactical officers to storm a bullet-strewn classroom in Uvalde, Tex., on Tuesday made the "wrong decision" to wait, the head of the state's Department of Public Safety acknowledged.
The gunman entered the school at about 11:40 a.m. local time through an apparently unlocked door, and contrary to initial reports, encountered no resistance, Escalon said — the armed school safety officer, normally a fixture at educational facilities around the U.S., was not there.
Act 1 came Tuesday, when an 18-year-old gunman, armed with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, killed 19 pre-teen children and two teachers in a fourth-grade classroom before dying himself at the hands of law enforcement.
