Indore authorities have declared the Rajwada area a 'No-Bus Zone' following a fatal bus accident that claimed two lives on Sunday. Additional DCP (Traffic) Santosh Kumar Koul announced the measure, taken on senior officials' instructions, to prevent future accidents. City buses will no longer be permitted to operate, pass through, or park in Rajwada until further notice.
E-rickshaws, previously restricted from operating directly in front of Rajwada, are also prohibited from standing or plying along the main stretch, with an alternative route available via Cloth Market and Gora Kund. Traffic police have been posted at critical intersections to enforce the restrictions and manage traffic flow. The incident occurred around 3:30 PM on Sunday when the driver mistakenly pressed the accelerator instead of the brake.
The speeding IMC electric city bus (PM Bus Sewa) collided with bystanders and an auto-rickshaw near a banyan tree, resulting in two deaths and two injuries.
