Road Accident in Sullia Causes Significant Milk Spillage
A serious road accident occurred in Balila, Sullia taluk, on Tuesday morning when two pickup vehicles collided, resulting in the spillage of approximately 600 litres of milk. The incident took place while a milk-laden pickup truck was en route to Bellare after collecting milk from four different milk producer societies. The vehicle was carrying around 20 cans filled with the milk when the collision caused it to overturn, scattering the cans on the road and leading to the loss of most of its contents.
The driver of the milk pickup, Syed Abdul Chennavar, was injured in the accident and was immediately taken to a hospital in Mangaluru for medical treatment. The milk spillage has caused a significant setback to the local dairy societies, with efforts currently underway to assess the total damage. Following the incident, local residents and authorities quickly responded to the scene. The cause of the accident is currently under investigation.
