Passengers in Markapur raised strong objections after a private travels bus scheduled to depart for Bengaluru was found without a front windshield.
Around 36 passengers who gathered near the court junction were shocked to see the bus in an unsafe condition and questioned the drivers.
In a shocking response, the drivers reportedly brushed off concerns, saying they would “wear helmets” while driving despite the missing
glass.
Tensions escalated as passengers argued with the crew, especially after unusual engine noises were also noticed when the bus was started. Following complaints lodged at the local police station, authorities intervened and found that the bus had been involved in an accident just two days earlier.
Police subsequently seized the vehicle and initiated further action, averting a potential safety hazard.
