Internet search ends in tragedy: Fatal accident claims student's life, injures 3 others in Hisar

Hisar, February 19: In a somber incident, a student lost his life while three others sustained injuries when the bike they were riding collided with a tree. The unfortunate event occurred as the youths, residing in Hisar district, embarked on a journey to Bhiwani district in search of internet connectivity, prompted by the ongoing internet shutdown in their region due to the ongoing farmers' protest.

According to available information, Deepak, a resident of Puthi Mangal khan, left his village early in the morning to pursue studies at the Industrial Training Institute (ITI) in Hisar. After attending classes, his three friends proposed a detour to Bhiwani, known for its uninterrupted internet access. The four, riding on a single bike, encountered a tragic turn of events when the bike's balance was disrupted, leading to a collision with a tree.
