Two young women from Telangana, Meghana Rani and Kadiyala Bhavana, both 24, died in a car accident in California while on a sightseeing trip with friends. The students had moved to the US for higher studies, recently completed their Master's degrees, and were seeking employment. Their vehicle reportedly lost control on a curve near Alabama Hills, plunging into a gorge. Families are seeking government assistance for repatriation of the bodies, while US authorities investigate the crash. A GoFundMe has been set up to support repatriation expenses.
