A car in the convoy of Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma met with an accident in Jaipur on Wednesday, injuring five policemen.
The accident occurred earlier in the day as the Chief Minister was on his way to attend an event in Jaipur. A vehicle approached the convoy from the wrong side of the road while the CM was enroute leading to the accident.
When the convoy was near the NRI Circle in Jaipur, a vehicle in the CM’s convoy collided with a road divider. The accident happened when the car tried to avoid hitting another car. The Rajasthan Chief Minister rushed the injured to the hospital in his personal vehicle.

“The Chief Minister ordered his vehicle to stop immediately. All five police personnel injured in the convoy vehicle crash were admitted to Jagatpura’s Jeevan Rekha Hospital. Among the injured, ASI Surendra Singh’s condition is critical,” an official from the Rajasthan Chief Minister’s Office said.
“The convoy was moving as usual, and traffic was not stopped for the Chief Minister’s journey. Amid the ongoing traffic, a convoy vehicle hit the road divider,” another official said.
Meanwhile, arrangements have been made at Jaipur’s Sawai Man Singh Hospital, where the injured are likely to be shifted for further treatment.
