Gurmeet Singh, a farmer who lived in Kishangarh, is survived by his wife and two children.

The accident took place around 4 am when Gurmeet was examining the damaged Swift car, which hit a tree after the driver lost control while crossing a speed breaker.

Raghu Nath, Sanjeev, Harish and Rohit were travelling in the Swift car (CH04 H 6570) and Gurmeet, Manoj and Ashok in the Hyundai Accent car (CH03 U 0184). The friends were returning from Amritsar after paying homage at the Golden Temple.

After the Swift car collided with a tree, Raghu Nath called his friends in the Accent car for help. Soon, Manoj, Gurmeet and Ashok reached the spot.

Manoj, who was driving the Accent car, took the injured to the hospital, while Gurmeet and Ashok stayed back at the accident spot.

As Gurmeet was examining the Swift car, a speeding Santro hit him. He was rushed to PGI where doctors declared him dead on arrival.
