Vijayapura Witnesses Multiple Road Accidents
Vijayapura district has witnessed several serious road accidents in recent months, including collisions involving buses, trucks and cars.
In June 2026, a collision between a tipper truck and a North Western Karnataka Road Transport Corporation (NWKRTC) bus near Loni Cross in Chadchan taluk reportedly killed three people and left several others injured. Reports attributed the crash to a tyre burst that caused the tipper driver to lose control of the vehicle.
In July 2026, three members of a family reportedly died after a car crashed into a road divider near Managuli on National Highway 50. Another fatal accident involving a tipper truck and a car occurred near the Korthi-Kolhar bridge, where the truck plunged into the Krishna River after crashing through the bridge's safety barriers.
The latest incident near Muthagi Cross has once again drawn attention to the serious consequences of road collisions in the district. Further information about the investigation is awaited.
