BENGALURU: Two days after a 14-year-old girl was mowed down by a BBMP garbage truck on Ballari Road, her woebegone parents on Wednesday staged a flash dharna at the accident spot, triggering a massive traffic jam on the stretch leading to the airport. She had tried crossing the road as the pedestrian subway nearby was waterlogged.
Akshaya, daughter of BMTC driver Narasimhamurthy and homemaker Geetha, was returning home with her sister when the accident happened.
