A school bus carrying children narrowly avoided a major accident in Haridwar when a road suddenly collapsed on Thursday near Kotwali Nagar. The incident occurred on a road where sewer line work had been done recently. As the bus approached the area, one of its wheels sank into the ground, causing the vehicle to tilt. The driver immediately applied the brakes, preventing the bus from moving further onto the collapsed section.
Eyewitnesses reported that had the bus continued for just a little further, the situation could have turned serious. The event was captured on a CCTV camera installed nearby, showing the road giving way as the bus passed. Locals expressed concern over the quality of the repairs made after the sewer line installation and demanded an investigation and immediate repairs.
