A serious accident occurred near Commerce Six Roads late on Diwali night in Ahmedabad. According to Sandesh's report, 46-year-old Abhinav Baluni, a resident of Nava Vadaj, was driving his car at high speed. At this time, he was under the influence of alcohol. He was accompanied in the car by 61-year-old Shankutal Sharma, a resident of Memnagar, who was also completely drunk.

As soon as they reached Commerce Six Roads, the driver lost control of the car and the vehicle climbed directly onto the divider. The impact of the accident was so severe that crowds of people gathered at the spot and a traffic jam situation arose. After the accident, driver Abhinav Baluni was so drunk that he did not even understand how to get out of the car.

Upon being informed by local people, the B Division Traffic Police and Gujarat University Police rushed to the spot immediately. The police examined both drunk persons on the spot. The traffic police have registered a drink and driving case against driver Abhinav Baluni and arrested him. On the other hand, the Gujarat University Police have filed a prohibition case against Shankutal Sharma, who was in the car. Currently, further legal investigation is being conducted by the police in this entire matter.
