The condition of one of the injured who suffered serious head injuries in the ghastly accident that took place near Kurubur village on T. Narsipur-Kollegal Highway stretch on Monday continues to be critical.
While the condition of Janardhan and four-year-old Puneeth is stable, Shashikumar is critical. All them are in the ICU. The three survived the horrific accident while ten others died.
The bodies of the deceased in the accident were sent to Sanganakal in Ballari district around 11.45 a.m. on Tuesday after the post-mortem at Mysore Medical College and Research Institute here.
Out of ten deceased, nine tourists belonged to Sangankal and the driver of the multipurpose vehicle (MPV-Innova) was from Srirangapatna. The deceased had hired the taxi for sightseeing.
In total, 12 members of three families of Manjunath, Sandeep and Janardhan, had come to Mysuru from Sanganakal to tour the city and surrounding places. Thirteen, including the driver, were travelling in the car when the accident took place. The cab and the private bus collided head-on. The bodies had to be extricated from the remains of the vehicle.
The tragedy struck when they were returning to Mysuru from B.R. Hills. The families from Ballari were learnt to have come to Mysuru by train and hired the cab to visit B.R. Hills. They had even booked tickets to return to Ballari on Monday evening.
The nine deceased were shifted to Sangankal village in Ballari for the funeral in four ambulances soon after the post-mortem, from Mysuru. The funeral was held later in the day at the village.
