Manu Bhaker, a double Olympic medalist, has tragically lost her maternal grandmother, Savitri Devi, and her elder maternal uncle, Yudhveer Singh, in a road accident. The accident occurred when a scooter collided with a car on Mahendragarh Bypass Road.

The crash was so severe that both her uncle and grandmother died at the scene. The driver of the car immediately fled the spot after the collision.

Police arrived at the scene shortly after receiving the information. The bodies were taken to a civil hospital for a post-mortem, and an investigation has been launched into the incident.

On January 17, Manu Bhaker had received the prestigious Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award, along with four other athletes, from the President of India, Draupadi Murmu, at Rashtrapati Bhawan.
