    We should not blame the bus driver because it is an accident. The driver of Rickshaws,two wheelers, cars should respect big vehicles and take care of their vehicle and passengers if they wish to live. The drivers of heavy vehicles neither afraid for GOD nor the punishment.So they don't care about other's life.It is the time to share some parts of law from sharia.

    So sad. Government should punish the driver who took away the lives of the innocent people. Death comes when you least expect. May God give strength and courage to the families to bear this loss. May their soul Rest in peace.

    Punish the owner of the bus, cancel the route and the driver should be behind bars for at least 10 years.

    This can't be termed as an accident rather reckless driving. Punish and punish the mad driver which will serve as a lesson to others.
