Tezpur, Nov 22 : Three youths were killed in two different road accidents at two places in Sonitpur district on November 21, 2022.
No matter how much awareness measures the Transport Department takes in the name of road safety, a group of unruly drivers appear as death messengers on the road. Every day or the other dangerous road mishaps are taking away lives of people.
