Tragic Accident Claims Life of Assam University Student Bhargav Das

In a devastating incident, 26-year-old Bhargav Das, a student pursuing a BSW course at Assam University Silchar, met an untimely demise in a shocking accident last night. Bhargav, hailing from Karimganj's Patharkandi area, was the son of Vaskar Das and the grandson of the renowned social worker, theater artist, and cultural activist Gita Das.

The heart-wrenching incident unfolded around 11:00 pm as Bhargav, accompanied by friends, set out on foot from home to explore Kali Puja pandals. Tragedy struck when a speeding Hyundai 110 hatchback lost control, veering into the opposite lane and fatally striking Bhargav, who was walking on the right side of the road. The impact was so severe that his lifeless body was found in a roadside gorge a few feet away.

Bhargav's family members, including his distinguished grandmother Gita Das, were left in shock and mourning after discovering his deformed body approximately 30 minutes later. A local resident, close to the developments, shared, "Businessman Pari Banik's son was driving the car, and we've learned that he recently acquired his driving skills."

The tragic incident not only claimed Bhargav's life but also left one of his friends critically injured, currently undergoing treatment at Silchar Medical College and Hospital. The entire area is enveloped in sorrow as the community mourns the loss of a promising young student.
