Following the occurrence, the authorities acted promptly to support those involved in the accident as well as clear the jam. The accident occurred when the driver of a Maruti Omni vehicle applied brakes in order to slow down and change lanes, but soon, several cars crashed into each other one after another, according to a report in Deccan Herald.
Meanwhile, Indian drugmaker Biocon Ltd founder-chairperson Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw also shared the video of the accident on X (formerly Twitter). “One bad driver can cause a pile-up,” she wrote.
