    I have seen how rashly the buses are driven in mangalore. even passengers do not utter a word. I tried to speak out once because of language problem could not convince and other passengers were just looking at me as if I was wasting their time. Sad such a horrible incident had to occur and two innocents lost their lives.

    May their souls RIP
