Four passengers including former MP Dhyan Singh Mand were injured when their car collided head-on with a truck on the Dharamkot-Kot-ise-khan road, 20 kilometres from here, last night. Three of the injured including Mand were admitted to a private hospital while the other was discharged after being given the first aid, police sources said.
Mand, a close associate of Simranjit Singh Mann, is contesting the SGPC election from Dharamkot and his associates were returning in a car from Dharamkot to Kot-ise-khan after campaigning when a truck coming from the opposite direction collided with their vehicle.
The locals took the injured to a private hospital. Police registered a case against the truck driver who fled from the spot leaving behind his vehicle. The truck was taken into custody and a hunt has been launched to nab the driver.
