Jaisalmer: In an appalling incident, four people were killed in a horrific road accident in Rajasthan's Jaisalmer. There are reports that the youths who were in the car were drunk and had earlier uploaded the video of them consuming alcohol on social media.

The speeding car went out of control

The speeding car went out of control and hit two pedestrians who were trying to cross the road, then went on to hit a van parked on the roadside. The incident occurred on Friday (January 5) night. The car also hit a cow. They were allegedly trying to make Instagram reels while driving the car at a very high speed.

There were four youths onboard the car

There were four youths onboard the car, and two of them died on the spot, while the other two are said to have suffered minor injuries and reportedly fled the spot after the accident occurred. The pedestrians have been identified as Manish, a 13-year-old boy, and his mother Menkala; they both lost their lives after being hit by the speeding vehicle.

The incident occurred at the Devikot intersection

The youths evaded a police barricade

The state government should come up with stricter laws
