On Sunday, 11 June 2023, an accident occurred on the Paderu Ghat road, Alluri Sitharama Raju District, where a car lost control, injuring seven persons belonging to Visakhapatnam. This unfortunate incident occurred at around 6:30 pm while the victims were returning to Gajuwaka after a temple visit.
