Relatives of the deceased in a road accident near Mothiyahi Bridge in Chandranigahapur have blocked the East-West Highway since Saturday afternoon.
The victim's relatives blocked the road demanding compensation after a motorcyclist died in a bus accident on Friday evening.
Nagendra Patel, 40, of Bishrampur, Brindaban Municipality-2, died when a bus (Na 4 Kha 6547) coming from Gaur towards Chandranigahpur collided with a motorcycle (Na 39 Pa 4240) coming from the opposite direction on the Chapur-Gaur section near Motiyahi Bridge in Chandrapur Municipality-6.
After the incident, a discussion was held between the family of the deceased and the bus operator at the Chandranigahpur Area Police Office. The family of the deceased blocked the highway after the bus owner insisted that they would not pay more than the amount prescribed by law.
Former mayor of Brindavan Municipality Ramsnehi Ray said that they had requested a small amount to be added as the condition of the victim's family was poor. 'What is in the law is being done. "We could have appeased the victim by adding some money," he said, "We will find a solution through discussion."
The deceased Patel's two sons and one daughter were riding the motorcycle. According to the police, the deceased Patel's 12-year-old son Yuvraj, who was riding the motorcycle, has an injury to his forehead. His 11-year-old daughter Aakriti Patel has injuries to her legs and head. Patel's 15-year-old son Prince Kumar has injuries to his legs, arms and forehead. Their condition is out of danger, according to the police.
The bus driver, Amrit Bahadur BK, a resident of Chandrapur-8, has been arrested, according to the police. District Police Chief SP Rabin Karki said that efforts are being made to open the road by negotiating with the victim. Hundreds of vehicles are stranded at Chandranigahpur Chowk due to the highway closure. Relatives of the deceased are sitting on the road burning tires.
