Previous Accident
In a similar incident last year, in September 2024, a tragic bus accident in Budgam, Jammu & Kashmir, claimed the lives of four Border Security Force (BSF) personnel and injured 28 others.
The bus was transporting 35 BSF jawans for election duty during the second phase of Assembly polls, scheduled for September 25. The accident took place in the Brell Waterhail area.
