After this, there was a jam of about 8 km on both sides of the highway. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has expressed grief over the accident. He has sent DM and SP to the spot.
The driver was driving the bus at high speed and did not agree even after refusing
A passenger on the bus said, 'The bus carrying 65 passengers was coming towards Lucknow from Dhaurhara. The driver was driving the bus at a very high speed. The passengers asked to reduce the speed, but the driver did not agree. This is the reason that Aira collided with a truck coming from the front of the bridge. In the accident, 4 passengers on the bus and the truck driver died on the spot. The conductor of the truck died on the way to the district hospital."
