    It was a very unfortunate incident. The deceased Chandru Mestri should have been careful while crossing the road. May his soul RIP. It was kind of Udupi ZP president Dinakar Babu who was in the car got out immediately and rushed the injured to Adarsh hospital.

    Unless it was a reckless driving , I don't think we need to connect it to ZP or to any other subjects.... at least he immediately got down and taken the victim to hospital. Unfortunate incident. RIP.
