Two people including a woman were killed in a head-on collision between a CNG-run auto-rickshaw and a tractor on the Gobindaganj–Nakaihat road in Gaibandha on Friday evening.


The accident occurred in the Chotrogacha area of Gobindaganj upazila.

The deceased woman was identified as Lipa Begum, 28, wife of police constable Sumon Mia of  Chotrogacha village.
