According to reports, a collision occurred at the Repurajat police post of Farah police station, situated near Pori village on the Agra-Mathura highway, on Sunday morning when a container collided with the post. The incident was reportedly caused by a tractor-trolley carrying sand traveling in the wrong direction, leading the container to veer out of control in an attempt to avoid it. Fortunately, there were no casualties, although the post building sustained cracks and damage to a government jeep occurred.
The collision was severe enough to dislodge an iron parcel box from the container, and it came to a halt after breaking through a cement barricade and impacting the post office. Following the accident, cracks appeared in the post building, and the government jeep was significantly damaged. Startled by the noise, the policemen on duty fled the scene. The station in-charge explained that the tractor driver had been traveling in the wrong direction on the highway, prompting the container to swerve out of control and collide with the post. The post staff were engaged in their usual tasks at the time of the incident. Authorities have taken possession of the container.
