As many as eight migrant farm labourers were injured, one of them critically, when the tractor-trolley they were travelling by turned upside down at R Kothagudem village in Charla mandal on Thursday.
The incident occurred when the driver of the tractor-trolley lost control while trying to avoid a pothole on the outskirts of R Kothagudem in the afternoon.
The tractor-trolley was carrying around 35 farm labourers from Teegala village in Chhattisgarh to chilli fields near Charla, when the accident took place.
