A man expressed his despair as his father remains missing following a tragic bus fire on the Yamuna Expressway in Greater Noida. The bus, which was traveling from Delhi to Mahoba in Bihar, caught fire, resulting in his mother being hospitalized with injuries. “I felt safe as long as my father was there; now I have nothing left,” he said, highlighting the emotional toll of the incident.
The victim’s son alleged that when he tried to contact the bus company, they did not provide any information regarding the bus or the accident.
He said the compensation announced for the victims of the incident is not enough and called for an investigation into the matter. “My grandmother passed away yesterday. My parents were travelling to be with the family when this tragedy happened. Everything was fine. “My mother tried to get out of the bus but fell. People climbed over her in the chaos. She has an injury to her eye and a fractured rib. My father has a rod in his leg. He could not move quickly or get out.
His father had surgery on his leg, due to which he was unable to move during the chaos. The Bihar-registered bus, which was carrying over 35 people, was quickly engulfed in flames, with the dense smoke making it difficult for people to escape. Nine passengers were killed, while 20 were rescued during the incident that took place late Wednesday night. I spoke to them at around 10 pm. At 6 in the morning, I tried tracking the bus, but the location was unavailable.
Their phones were switched off,” Sarvoday told NDTV. His mother tried to get out of the bus during the commotion after the fire and got injured in the process, according to Sarvoday. He is still missing,” said Sarvoday.
