Highway Accident: Massive Fire Erupts in Overloaded Truck on Delhi-Jaipur Route near Rewari

A major fire broke out on National Highway 48 near Rewari, Haryana, when an overloaded truck traveling from Delhi to Jaipur suddenly caught fire, creating panic among commuters. The incident occurred near the Ordhi Cut area of Bawal, where the moving vehicle was engulfed in flames within minutes. Eyewitnesses reported seeing smoke rising from the truck before it burst into a massive blaze. Fire brigade teams and officials from the National Highway Authority rushed to the spot immediately after receiving the alert. Firefighters battled the flames for several hours before bringing the situation under control. During the operation, traffic on the busy highway had to be diverted temporarily to ensure safety. Fortunately, no casualties have been reported so far, though the truck was completely destroyed in the fire. Preliminary investigations suggest that a short circuit may have caused the blaze, but authorities have yet to confirm the exact reason. The driver reportedly fled the scene before the fire spread, and police have seized the burnt vehicle for further examination. The incident highlights ongoing concerns over overloaded and poorly maintained vehicles on national highways.
