Indian High Commissioner Pinak Ranjan Chakravarty was luckily saved from an accident near Ashulia on his way to Dhaka Monday, but his official car was damaged, reports UNB.

Pinak and his wife were returning to Dhaka after a visit to Gede-Darshana rail stations on the eve of Dhaka-Kolkata passenger train service.

The accident took place at Nishchintapur at about 2pm when a bus from opposite direction was trying to overtake another bus. The High Commissioner''s car was being escorted by a police car.

As the escort car whistled, the driver of the overtaking bus got panicked. In this situation, both the High Commissioner''s car and escort car pressed sudden breaks.

As a result, the High Commissioner''s car hit the escort car and the bus from opposite direction also hit the High Commissioner''s car which was badly damaged.

Ajit Gupta, Counselor of the Indian High Commission told UNB that High Commissioner Chakravarty and his wife are safe and returned to Dhaka in a separate car. Police seized the bus belonging to Manjil Paribahan and filed a case with Ashulia police station.
