    Nine precious lost and we do not know whom to blame for this tragedy. From the pictures it seems that both were speeding and had a head on collision. The groom was lucky he was not in the tempo as he was following the tempo in a motor bike. His future wife was lucky to see him alive. Everyday we hear KSRTC buses involved in head on collisions where there are injuries or death of passengers.May the soul of the deceased RIP and my heart felt condolences to the bereaved families and friends.

    Frustration leads to this kind of  accidents.because drivers in india work hard to make more money as the salary of these drivers are not much good.they work day and as well as also in the night.so total hours will be around 16to18.so the reason ??
