The image above shows the towing wire being attached to the SUV and the truck. The truck seems to be stuck in slushy/muddy conditions. The reason could be mechanical as well because the details of the incident are not fully known. But due to some reason, the truck was unable to move. The Tata Harrier, which is reportedly an FWD had to pull the truck out to clear out the path. The conditions are clearly off-road. There is no sign of tarmec.
