Ballia: Senior Samajwadi Party leader Ambika Chaudhary had a narrow escape on Monday after her car rammed into a divider in Ballia.
Chaudhary, who escaped unhurt, told PTI that he was on his way to the district headquarters when his car rammed into a divider near the Ballia railway station.
The impact damaged the car and injured his brother Sudhir, who was behind the wheel, while he and his security guard had a narrow escape, the former Uttar Pradesh minister said.
Chaudhary termed the incident a result of the administration's "gross negligence".
"The spot where the accident occurred was dark. A truck had previously crashed into the same divider, yet no lighting arrangements were made there," Chaudhary said.
