Bus overturns on Haldia-Mecheda highway: Multiple injuries reported

A bus overturned on the Haldia-Mecheda National Highway around 10 am on Monday morning, causing several injuries to passengers on board. The incident occurred as the bus, traveling from Mecheda to Haldia, was reportedly speeding along the 116 Haldia-Mecheda National Highway. Witnesses at the scene recounted that the bus lost control while attempting to overtake another vehicle, compounded by slippery road conditions due to rain, leading to the overturning of the bus.
