According to him, a Yutong bus reportedly collided with a mini Sprinter bus with registration number AS 1801-18 causing both vehicles to go up in flames.
While it is unclear what caused the incident, local reports suggest the Yutong bus may have veered off its lane while trying to overtake another vehicle but ended up crashing into the sprinter bus.
