Three members of a family, including a 15-year-old girl, were killed on Wednesday after they fell off their motorcycle and ran over by a speeding car in neighbouring Korba district in Chhattisgarh, a police official said.

The victims, identified as Sushil (40), his grandmother Rajkumari and his daughter Shivani, were heading to their native village on a motorcycle, he said.
