As many as 11 persons were killed and 15 others injured in two accidents in Punjab on Sunday, the police said.
Seven people lost their lives when the driver of a speeding sport utlity vehicle lost control over it and it hit vehicles parked outside a roadside eatery in Beas town, around 40 km from Amritsar.
The victims were sitting in a stationary auto-rickshaw when the SUV hit it. They were on way to Amritsar to offer prayers at the Golden Temple.
Four persons were killed and 15 others injured in a collision between a state-run bus and a truck on the Rampura Phul-Barnala highway on Sunday morning.
Three persons died on the spot, while one succumbed to injuries at a Rampura Phul hospital.
