The mangled remains of the car

Vaibhav said that his uncle and father were seated in the front and had worn seat belts, which saved their lives. “My mother, wife, and I were seated at the back. I have a habit of gripping the handle above the door, which is probably what saved me. But, because the car door broke, my mother Ujwala was thrown out and was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. While Prajakta is currently fighting for her life at Fortis Hospital,” he said. Meanwhile, Vaibhav and his father who sustained multiple bruises all over their bodies have been advised bed rest.

The hospital’s statement revealed the severity of Prajakta’s injuries. “...she had slipped into a coma prior to her transfer from another hospital. Upon assessment at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, she was diagnosed with a severe head injury, chest trauma, blood accumulation in the chest and abdomen, as well as lacerations of the spleen and liver. A decompression surgery was performed to address swelling in the posterior cranial fossa.”

Prajakta’s current condition is stable but she is sedated. She is scheduled to undergo a CT scan to assess her brain health, which will determine the subsequent steps in her treatment. “Recovery is expected to be a lengthy process, involving several weeks in the hospital followed by rehabilitation therapy upon discharge,” read the statement.

Her sister, Deepali Kharat said, “We need around Rs 24 lakh for her treatment. We are relying on crowdfunding for this and have urged all our family members to share a help message on social media.”
