At least 18 people were killed and 19 injured when a double-decker bus collided with a milk tanker on the Agra-Lucknow Expressway in Uttar Pradesh's Unnao district on Wednesday morning. The accident occurred around 5:15 am near Jojikot village in the Bangarmau area. Initial investigations suggest the bus, traveling from Bihar to Delhi, was speeding when it struck the tanker from behind, causing both vehicles to overturn and one side of the bus to be torn off. The injured were rushed to a local hospital and are reported to be in stable condition. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has expressed condolences and directed officials to expedite relief efforts. India has a high rate of road accidents, often attributed to reckless driving and poorly maintained roads.
