One Student Lost Her Life, And Others Were Injured As A Picnic Bus Overturned In Handwara

Kupwara (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], April 12 (ANI): A person lost her life, and several others were injured after a college bus was involved in an accident in the Vodhpara area in the Kupwara district of Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday.

According to local witnesses, there were approximately 20 to 25 girls on the bus.

“There were around 20-25 people. I saw the crowd and congestion with the college bus being there; the situation seemed bad. We had put the cloth on people’s heads,” one of the locals told ANI.

The person further added that the bus passengers were taken to the district hospital in Kupwara, alleging that an ambulance did not arrive at the scene despite trying to call them repeatedly.

He added, “We took them to JMC Kupwara, we tried calling the ambulance 50 times, no one came, so we got a private car and sent them to JMC Kupwara.”
