Medical Dialogues recently reported about a fatal accident where a female BAMS intern from Jai Prakash Hospital lost her life while returning home on her scooter. She was waiting at a traffic intersection at Bhanpur Crossing when a speeding school bus rammed into her from behind. She became trapped in the front section of the bus and was dragged for nearly 50 feet, resulting in her death on the spot.

The out-of-control school bus didn’t stop there; it went on to collide with at least half a dozen vehicles, including a car, at a traffic signal in the busy Bhanganga Square area of Bhopal. The accident left the young doctor dead and six others injured, two of whom are reported to be in critical condition.
