Jasmeet’s father Jasbir Singh said, “It is killer smog and lives are at risk. The schools need to delay timings. My daughter is supposed to reach her school at 8:30 am — this is not feasible as conditions are extremely unsafe in such smoggy weather.”

He
added that his daughter banged her head hard as the driver applied
brakes in a bid to halt the vehicle. The bus, which hit the rear of a
stationary truck, was damaged and its front mirror smashed. An
eyewitness Sukhdev Singh said that school bus was being driven rashly
despite the smog.

“The truck was parked along the roadside and
the driver was doing some repair work. I was repairing my truck too as
the tyre had burst. I saw the school bus coming in high speed. We even
signalled to the driver to slow down.

Eventually he lost control of the
bus and collided with the truck. We immediately got into the bus as
students were bleeding. They were rushed to the nearby hospital. Even
the school bus driver has suffered injuries,” he said. School officials visited the victims at the hospital immediately after the accident.
