Hundreds of people arrived at the private hospital in Moodbidri where Jain was admitted.

    Very Shocking News. RIP... God bless and give strength to the family and to all well wishers of Mr. Gunapal Jain.. Hopefully the law and action in India must go on strongly for these accident cases specially at Dakshina kannada for the speedy permit owners and the drivers.

    COMPULSORY FIT SPEED LIMIT MODULE ON FUEL INJECTION PUMP ON DIESEL ENGINE OF ALL THE BUSES AND HEAVY GOODS TRUCKS. SO THEY DON'T GO ABOVE 45 K M SPEED. IT SAVES FUEL ALSO, LIVES ALSO.

    I really feel the 6 wheelers should be given a speed limit and the drivers should not be youngsters.
    People of 40 plus age, who has a family to look after will drive cautiously. Not the youngsters for whom everything is Kalli-Walli..

    RIP Mr. Jain
