Five men were killed and one critically injured when a black Mahindra Thar, carrying six passengers, crashed into a highway divider near the Jharsa Flyover on the Gurugram-Delhi-Jaipur Highway in the early hours of Saturday, September 27. Sector-40 Station House Officer (SHO) Lalit confirmed the details of the tragic incident.

The accident occurred at around 4:30 a.m. as the Thar, registered in Uttar Pradesh, attempted to exit National Highway-48 at Exit No. 9 towards Rajiv Chowk. According to police, the vehicle was travelling at high speed when the driver lost control, causing it to slam violently into the divider. The impact was so severe that four passengers died instantly, while two others were rushed to hospital. One of the injured later succumbed to injuries, leaving only one survivor, who remains in critical condition.
