At least ten persons were killed in three separate road accidents in Madhya Pradesh's Vidisha, Ratlam, and Jabalpur districts on Saturday, police reported.

Four individuals, originally from Rajasthan, died, and six others were injured when their SUV crashed into a truck at around 4 am on the Biaora-Bina highway in Vidisha district, an official stated.

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav expressed profound sorrow over the tragic incidents.

In Ratlam district's Raoti area, a pick-up vehicle toppled into a 60-foot gorge, resulting in the deaths of three people, including a boy, and injuries to 20 others. The accident occurred on the Raoti-Dholawad road, 35 km from the Ratlam district headquarters, due to brake failure, according to Raoti police official Jaiprakash Chouhan. The victims were identified as Leela Bai (40), Nanibai (47), and Ajay (15), he added.

In Jabalpur district, three individuals died in a collision between a car and a two-wheeler near Belkheda village. The victims were heading to a family event on a motorcycle. Prem Singh (55) and Sheel Rani (50) died instantly, while the severely injured Mohan (35) later succumbed in the hospital, Belkheda police official Sarojani Chouksey confirmed. The trio was from Hanumatbago village in adjoining Damoh district, she said.
