Sohail pointed out that 1,155 were killed and 8,783 injured in road accidents in the last three-and-a-half years, ever since TRS won the GHMC elections. He said bad roads were the major cause of accidents. Of 1,258 accidents reported this year till June 30, as many as 446 cases pertained to 2-wheelers. Of 129 deaths, 53 victims were pedestrians, 42 were 2-wheeler or pillion riders and 28 were due to self cause/own, he said. “The father-son duo is directly responsible for the pathetic condition of roads.
