Sangareddy: A trip to the neighbouring Karnataka in search of work proved costly for three families, with two persons dying in a road accident while a third was unconscious after their two-wheeler were hit by a traveller van.

Ismail Gudu Saheb (24), Munnuru Ramesh Hanumanth (44) and Chakali Basvaraj (46), were residents of Ratnapur in Nyalkal mandal, which was just 6 km from the State border. The three used to eke out a livelihood by working as daily wagers and used to travel to Bidar and other parts of Karnataka. Last Sunday, the three were proceeding on a two-wheeler when a tempo traveller hit them at a spot under the Dhannur police station limits. While Ismail died on the spot, Ramesh and Basavaraj were shifted to Gandhi Hospital after providing treatment at the government hospital in Bidar.
