The family of the driver who was allegedly hit by HRD minister Smriti Irani's convoy on Saturday, has claimed that they had asked the Union Minister for help but she refused. A man, who was driving a car, was killed in the chain of collisions which had led to a huge pile up of vehicles on the highway.
"Smriti Irani's car was coming from the same side that my father's car was. A truck hit his car from behind, my father was looking out for the children in the car when one of Smriti's car hit him again and he died," the son of the deceased said.
"We asked for help from Smriti Irani but she refused and he was hit again. If she would have helped, may be he would have been alive today," the deceased's daughter said.
In a series of tweets after the accident, Irani said, "For all enquiring re my accident- I'm fine. Thank you for the concern and wishes."
"There was a pile up of vehicles due to an accident on the expressway. Unfortunately the police vehicle before mine & my car also crashed," she said about the scene of the accident.
"Tried to help the injured who were lying on the road for quiet sometime and ensured they reach a hospital. Pray for their safety," she said in another tweet.
"Good Samaritan Manoj Chopra and his wife also helped injured citizens. God bless them for their empathy and kindness," she added.
