Karimnagar: In a tragic incident, a government school teacher and her former student died in a road accident on the Bommakal bypass road near Rajiv Rahadari on the outskirts of Karimnagar town on Sunday night.
The teacher Sirimalla Jyothi (48) was helping her former student Kallem Soujanya (24), prepare for competitive examinations. As part of this, the two had gone outside from Jyothi’s Housing Board Colony residence around 8.30 pm but met with an accident while returning home.
