Leader of Opposition in the Maharashtra legislative council Ambadas Danve Sunday claimed that the fatal accident on Samruddhi Expressway where a mini-bus collided with the truck, happened after an RTO team stopped the truck. Danve said vehicles should be checked by the RTO after they cross the interchange toll and before entering the expressway. A team of the RTO stopped the running truck on the expressway, therefore the minibus collided with the truck, Danve said in a post on X, while terming the accident as "manmade".
