A woman was among the two labourers who died in the accident that occurred in Nai Abadi area, Sadar Station House Officer (SHO) Surja Ram Chaudhary said.

The SHO identified the deceased as Devaram Garasiya and Sukhi Devi Meghwal, both aged 45.

The four injured labourers were sent home after first aid.
