Athani MLA and former Deputy Chief Minister Laxman Savadi escaped unhurt after his car was involved in an accident near Darur village in Belagavi district on Monday afternoon, according to sources.
The incident took place while Savadi was en route to Bengaluru from Athani, following his participation in a quarterly progress review meeting at the Taluk Panchayat office earlier that day.
Sources confirmed that Savadi was not injured and resumed his journey to Bengaluru shortly afterward. It remains unclear whether he completed the trip by road or boarded a flight after reaching Belagavi airport.
