  "account": "A TGSRTC bus crashed into an electric pole after attempting to avoid hitting a motorcycle on the Medipalli highway in Jagtial district on Thursday. The collision occurred while the bus, en route from Nizamabad to Metpalli, applied sudden brakes to evade the motorcycle. As a result, the bus swerved off the road and collided with the roadside electrical pole. The motorcycle operator, identified as Lakshman from Bandalingapur village within the same mandal, sustained injuries when he reportedly fell from his two-wheeler. He was taken to a hospital in Jagtial for medical attention. Fortunately, none of the passengers on the bus were injured. However, the front section of the bus sustained damage from the impact.",
