Daily commuters to the Hinjewadi IT Park expressed anger over the incident and held the civic authorities responsible, citing the poor road condition.

The boy, a resident of Maan near Hinjewadi, was travelling with his father and sister on a motorcycle to attend his classes on Monday afternoon.

As per the FIR, the three were travelling on Nande-Mhalunge Road when a truck hit their two-wheeler from the rear, following which all of them fell from the motorbike. The boy got crushed under the rear wheel of the truck and died, police said.

However, the CCTV footage of the incident shows that the motorcycle, while attempting to overtake the truck from the left side, skidded, possibly due to the broken road, and the boy came under the wheels of the truck.

After the accident, locals and commuters vented anger at civic authorities, blaming them for the poor road condition.
