Anesthesia doctor from India and family die in American car accident
In New York, a tragic accident took the lives of four elderly Indian-origin individuals, including a well-known 89-year-old anesthesiologist. The group was on a family trip to a spiritual site when their Toyota Camry crashed down a steep embankment near their hotel, resulting in all four fatalities. The victims, identified as Dr. Kishore Divan, his wife Asha Divan, and Shailesh Divan and his wife Gita Divan, were reported missing for four days until authorities located them near rugged terrain. The family was en route to the spiritual monument Prabhupada’s Palace of Gold in West Virginia but never made it. Dr. Kishore Divan, a respected anesthesiologist, had been serving in New York for over two decades. The details around the crash are still under investigation, with the challenging road near the hotel being noted as particularly difficult for unfamiliar drivers. Friends and members of the local Indian-American community have shared their sympathies for the family's loss.
