Port Blair, Feb 08: Yesterday morning a large truck transporting a full load of cement met with an accident at Rangat. The incident took place around 8:30 AM when the truck, laden with cement bags, was en route from Port Blair to Diglipur.
As the truck was passing the Rangat DFO Office area, it encountered a bus approaching from the opposite direction. In response, the truck driver applied the brakes abruptly. Unfortunately, the truck skidded off the road, causing the rear axle to break.
Despite the mishap, the truck managed to remain upright, averting a potential disaster. However, the incident led to a temporary halt in traffic movement, disrupting the flow of vehicles in the area. Soon, the police arrived at the scene and established an alternate route to ease the congestion.
