Constable Dies in Tragic Road Accident: Constable K. Jagan’s Last Journey
The victim, K. Jagan, was just 27 years old and was serving as a police constable at Thirumangalam police station near Anna Nagar in Chennai. He had come to his native village, Maniyambattu, on leave to attend a family function. But no one in his family would have imagined that this visit would be his last.
Jagan was riding his two-wheeler to meet his friends in Tiruvalam village near Katpadi when tragedy struck. A speeding lorry coming from the opposite direction crashed into his bike. The impact was so strong that Jagan was thrown off his vehicle and hit a roadside tree. He died on the spot.

However, the driver of the lorry is on the run, and special police teams have been formed to track him down. Investigations are ongoing to understand the full details of the incident.
A Loss That Can’t Be Replaced
Jagan was not just a constable; he was a son, a friend, and a dedicated officer. His sudden death has left his family shattered. His colleagues remember him as a hardworking and sincere officer. The grief of losing a loved one due to an accident is unimaginable.
This heartbreaking incident highlights the importance of road safety. A single moment of carelessness – whether by a driver or a rider – can take away a precious life.
