Kalgi’s son gets drunk, rams car into metal pole

TIMES NEWS NETWORK

Ahmedabad: 21-year-old Daksh lost control over his car and hit a power pole and then a signboard near Shivranjani Crossroads early on Sunday morning. Police identified Daksh as the son of Gujarat’s betting kingpin, Dinesh Kalgi. Cops have booked Daksh for drunken driving and damaging public property.

According to police, Daksh Thakkar, a second-year commerce student at a city college and resident of Paldi, was returning home from SG Road at 3 am. While crossing Maruti Complex near Shivranjani Crossroads, he lost control over his vehicle and hit an electricity pole on the footpath. In an attempt to get away from the spot, Daksh tried to take a sharp turn but the car turned turtle. The vehicle dragged on the road for 15 feet, damaging a signboard on the way.

“A team of Home Guard jawans deployed near the crossroads had seen the car coming at great speed and were about to start on a chase when they heard the crash. One of the jawans checked on Daksh who had received a few bruises. He was reeking of alcohol and was apparently sloshed. He was brought out of the upturned car and was taken to a nearby clinic for treatment before being arrested,” said a police official.

Police said Daksh had not been found involved in any other criminal activity so far. Dinesh Thakkar, alias Kalgi, was detained a number of times recently for his stake in Sudama Resorts and in several smaller clubs known to be gambling dens and part of betting networks.

Around 120AM this morning a white MINI Cooper open top rammed into the median at the junction of Greams Road and Greams Lane near Apollo Hospitals Chennai. The MINI was not having registration plates. As seen in the pics the right front side was damaged fully. The Head Light broken, alloy wheel was jutting out of the right front tyre. It seem to me a major repair job. The occupants were fine and escaped unhurt thankfully. A joy ride gone wrong!

On the other hand, I haven't got a chance to get my bumper dent removed yet. I tried to push the fiber from inside the bumper, but its too hard. Have spoken to a FNG (200mts from my house). Will take the car to him sometime and get it fixed.

Whilst the discussion of rear-ending continues, I got rear ended today. No points for guessing, by a biker who was tailing me super closely.

I had a similar bump on a santro rear bumper, was much worse than yours, my mech removed the bumper, poured hot water ( not the painted outer surface but from behind) and then pushed it to place. The was no damage to paint ( mettalic grey). Using a hammer or even a mallet will break the paint into chips. It has worked for me, you can try it as a last resort.
