The Wada police station house officer said that Nilesh Sambre (23) and Amit Savra (26) were riding a two-wheeler which got stuck in a pothole. As they were trying to push it out, a dumper truck coming from behind crushed them to death.
As the news spread, angry villagers resorted to a rasta-roko, demanding action against the road contractor for the pothole-filled road.
Police have registered a case against the dumper driver. No arrest has been made yet.
