Deaths reported by district police or commissionerate
Four police units in Telangana — Cyberabad, Rachakonda, Sangareddy and Warangal — have figured on the dubious list of 100 police jurisdictions in the country with the highest road-fatality burden, according to data shared by the road transport authority, sourced from the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and SaveLIFE Foundation. Together, the four units recorded more than 2,500 deaths in 2025, with Cyberabad accounting for more than 900. Rachakonda recorded 1,091 crashes in 2024, resulting in 1,300 deaths, compared with 1,224 crashes, causing 1,345 deaths, in 2023. From 2025, more than 419 to 457, even as grievous-injury crashes fell about 20%. A hotspot under Sangareddy Rural police station recorded 13 deaths, while two NH-65 locations under Kohir and Sadasivpet police stations recorded 10 each.
College students riding without helmets are involved in crashes, while rash driving and self-risk incidents are also being reported frequently.
Police officials said many fatal crashes occur on highways and city outskirts, with speeding and rash driving contributing. Cyberabad ranked 44th nationally, followed by Rachakonda at 46th, Sangareddy at 56th and Warangal at 60th. Delhi Police commissionerate recorded the highest number of road fatalities among metropolitan cities and jurisdictions. In the Rachakonda and Cyberabad regions, areas such as Ghatkesar, Kompally and Ibrahimpatnam have emerged as accident-prone zones. Several other spots, including under Kondapur-Sadasivpet, Patancheru and Sadashivpet, recorded seven deaths each.
