A 22-year-old student from Prakasam District was killed in a road accident in Texas state of the United States of America, according to information received by his family members here on Wednesday.
Death of the student, G. Sailendra Harsha, in the road accident came as a rude shock to his father G. Vijaykumar and other family members as only two to three months was left for completion of his post-graduation in the university at Beaumont. His friend Deepak who also hails from Pamuru in Prakasam District was injured in the mishap.
The body of Sailendra would be brought to Ongole by Sunday, said Mr. Vijaykumar, an Assistant engineer in the Panchayatraj Department in Maddipadu, near here. ''My husband wanted to see him as a renowned architect'', added Sailendra Harsha's mother Kalyani unable to control tears running down her cheeks.
Unable to come to terms with the loss of her beloved brother, Sailendra's younger sister Naga Nandini, who studies II year MPC course in a junior college here said that her brother was good at studies. He was a source of inspiration to her and her elder brother G. Bhuvanendra Harsha studying engineering at Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University at Kakinada.
