|November 26, 2025
In a heart-stopping incident that could have turned catastrophic, a passenger bus ferrying 45 people from Gurugram to Panna in Madhya Pradesh, burst into flames late on Monday night on the Mumbai Highway in Gwalior's Old Cantonment police station area.
The video coach, registered as UP93 CT-6747, was reduced to a charred skeleton within minutes, but swift actions by the driver and alert passengers ensured no lives were lost.
The ordeal unfolded around midnight as the bus crossed the Morena district border into Gwalior. Most passengers, including women and children, were settling in for the long overnight journey, with many dozing off, said police officials.
