Kolkata, February 21: Former Indian cricket captain Sourav Ganguly's convoy met with an accident on Thursday on the Durgapur Expressway in West Bengal's East Burdwan district, but no injuries were reported.
According to the police, the accident occurred when Ganguly was traveling by car, and a speeding lorry attempted to overtake the vehicle. The sudden maneuver forced Ganguly's driver to apply the brakes abruptly, resulting in collisions between the vehicles in his convoy.
A police official stated, "The sudden approach of the lorry led to a chain reaction where the vehicles in Ganguly’s convoy collided with each other. One of the vehicles also bumped into Ganguly’s car. Fortunately, the damages were minor, and no one was injured."
Ganguly was en route to attend an event organized by Burdwan University. Despite the accident, he managed to participate in the program as scheduled.
