Once again a case of hit and run has come to light in the capital Raipur. On Wednesday night, two traffic jawans posted on duty at Telibandha Chowk were hit by a speeding pickup vehicle and fled from the spot. Both the jawans were seriously injured in the accident, who were immediately admitted to the hospital. This incident happened when the jawans were engaged in traffic control and trying to stop the vehicle.

The incident took place between 9 to 9:30 pm, when traffic constables Keshav Kshatriya and Rajjab Khan were posted on duty in front of Telibandha police station. Meanwhile, a speeding Maharashtra passing pickup coming from Tatibandh broke the traffic signal and moved towards the jawans at high speed. When both the jawans tried to stop the vehicle, the driver deliberately turned the pickup towards them and ran over them and fled towards Mahasamund Road.

Traffic jawan Rajjab Khan's hand and Keshav Kshatriya's leg were broken in the accident. Both of them were immediately taken to Ramakrishna Hospital with the help of policemen present on the spot, where their treatment is going on.
