Vehicular movement along the Chandranigahapur-Nijgadh road section in Rautahat has been completely obstructed after an Indian gas bullet truck met with an accident on Tuesday.
The truck (UP 17 A 214) driver sustained minor injuries in the accident that occurred this morning.
Authorities have halted traffic following reports of a gas bullet truck accident, citing safety concerns.
Police have urged drivers to use alternative roads.
A fire engine and a crane were deployed to remove the truck from the road amid fears of a potential fire.

She said that the road will remain closed until the situation returns to normalcy.
