A tragic accident unfolded near Bayyavaram, Andhra Pradesh, when an RTC bus heading towards Visakhapatnam from Narsipatnam collided with a lorry on the national highway. The impact left eight individuals, including the bus driver, injured, though no fatalities were reported.

Authorities, including Kasimkota Inspector Swamy Naidu, confirmed that the injured have been transported to a nearby government medical facility. As officials gather more information, the event adds to concerns from a similar catastrophe last month that resulted in the deaths of eight pilgrims following a structural failure in Visakhapatnam.

In the wake of these events, relatives of victims are demanding accountability. Following a recent incident involving alleged poor construction that claimed the lives of four family members, relatives called for stringent action against those responsible. They urged the government to offer compensation and ensure structural integrity in future projects.
