Chandigarh, Dec 24 (IBNS): At least seven people were killed and several others injured in a pile-up on a busy flyover in Haryana due to dense fog on Monday morning, NDTV said.
Close to 50 vehicles were involved in the accident that took place on the Rohtak-Rewari Highway.
According to the report, a school bus was among the vehicles that got involved in the accident, which took place because of poor visibility.
Parts of Haryana, Punjab, Delhi, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh were engulfed in thick fog on Monday morning.
"Cold weather combined with the availability of moisture will result in foggy conditions over Northwest India. This dense fog is likely to reduce visibility over Punjab, Haryana, North Rajasthan, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh resulting in difficulty for commuters in the morning and noon hours," the report quoted private weather forecast agency Skymet as saying.
