Eight people, including five members of a family, were killed and as many injured in two separate accidents in Madhya Pradesh on Friday.
At least five people were killed and six children wounded when a vehicle and a car packed with school children collided head-on in Sagar district.
In the other incident, three people -- a police officer and two policemen -- were killed in Ashok Nagar district when the driver lost control over the vehicle and rammed into a tree. They were returning from a programme in which Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan visited the area to take stock of crop destruction due to hailstorm.
