Tangi/Mohana: At least four persons were killed in two separate road accidents in Khurda and Gajapati districts.
A youth died after being hit by an unidentified vehicle on National Highway-16 near Champagarh under Tangi police station limits on Friday morning.
The deceased has been identified as Bharat Tada, a resident of Srikrushnapur under Ranpur police limits in the district.
