Mandya: Three members of one family died on Tuesday morning at Koppa in Maddur taluk, Mandya, when a milk tanker struck the scooter on which four of them were travelling to Bengaluru after Gowri-Ganesha festivities. The dead have been identified as Muthuraj, 35, Kavya, 30, and Keerthana, 8. Another daughter was badly hurt and has been admitted to hospital.
Muthuraj lived at Kootanahalli in Kanakapura and worked at a factory in Peenya, Bengaluru. The family had gone together to the wife’s parental home for the festival. Work required him back, so they left for Bengaluru by scooter in the morning.
