Two students were killed Saturday after their car collided with a parked truck on Delhi-Mumbai expressway in Ferozepur Jhirka Saturday morning.
According to police, Sohna residents Harsh (21), who was a PG student at Maharshi Dayanand University in Rohtak, and his cousin Anjali (26), an LLB student at Sunrise University in Alwar, died after their Ford Endeavour car collided with a stationary truck on the highway around 9.30 am on Saturday.

They were going to drop Harsh’s sister, Manvi, and Anjali in Alwar for their exams when they met with the accident. Other occupants, identified as Meera, Pushpa and her son Happy (7), sustained injuries.
Police said the truck did not have its indicator on and was parked negligently on the highway. “Visibility in the morning was poor and the car driver did not see the truck until they were close and could not stop the vehicle. Though two other vehicles also hit the vehicles to cause a small pile-up, no one in those vehicles was injured,” IO in the case, SI Virender Singh said.
He added that the victims were declared dead on arrival at Mandi Khera civil hospital.
