Tragic Loss: Hyderabad NRI Mohammed Wajid Dies in Accident in Massachusetts
Wajid's demise not only represents a loss to his family but also to the broader community he was part of.

In a heartbreaking incident, Mohammed Wajid, a 28-year-old Non-Resident Indian (NRI) from Hyderabad, met with a fatal accident in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Wajid was in the process of pursuing advanced studies in Chicago and encountered this tragic fate on a Wednesday. Early in the morning according to Indian Standard Time (IST), which corresponds to Tuesday evening in the US, Wajid was involved in a severe collision. While driving, he failed to heed a stop sign at an intersection, leading to a collision with a truck that resulted in his immediate death.
Wajid's demise not only represents a loss to his family but also to the broader community he was part of. He was an active participant in the political sphere, holding positions such as a leader of the Youth Congress in the Khairatabad division and a member of the NRI minority Congress committee in the USA. His untimely departure has left a void in these circles, where his enthusiasm and commitment were highly valued.
Rohin Reddy, the president of the Khairatabad district Congress committee, shared his grief over the incident, remarking, "Wajid was a disciplined young man. His passion, energy, and dedication to our organization will be deeply missed." Reddy further highlighted that adverse weather conditions, including heavy fog and poor visibility, played a significant role in the tragic accident. This detail underscores the hazards that can significantly increase the risk of road accidents, especially under poor weather conditions.
The loss has prompted Wajid's family to make immediate travel plans to the USA, aiming to be there by Thursday to perform his last rites. This journey is a somber one, with the family likely grappling with the shock and sorrow of losing a loved one so suddenly and far from home. Wajid's contribution to his community and the circumstances of his passing serve as a poignant reminder of the unpredictability of life and the importance of safety on the roads.
