Team India cricketer Rishabh Pant was involved in a horrific car accident in December 2022 which nearly cost the young star his life. Pant was out of international cricket for more than a year which multiple serious injured suffered in the accident on the Dehradun highway.

Pant is only alive thanks to a couple of good Samaritans, who pulled him out of his burning vehicle in the nick of time. Rajat Kumar, the 25-year-old man who rescued Pant from his burning car in 2022, attempted suicide along with his girlfriend by consuming poison. The tragic incident occurred on February 9 in Buchha Basti, a village in Uttar Pradesh’s Muzaffarnagar district.

Rajat and his 21-year-old girlfriend, Manu Kashyap, allegedly consumed poison after their families opposed to their union. While Manu succumbed during treatment, Rajat remains in critical condition, fighting for his life in a hospital, according to a report in NDTV.
