Emergency response teams, including ambulance pilots Keshav Balwara, Sandeep Modi, Narendra Khinchi, and Sunil Khinchi, arrived at the scene shortly after the incident. They rushed the five occupants of the car to the district hospital. Medical staff at the facility pronounced Himanshu Panwar dead on arrival.
