Emergency services were deployed to the scene, and the injured have been transported to local hospitals for medical treatment.

A serious road accident occurred in Moradabad on Sunday involving a bus carrying pilgrims from Nepal. According to reports from Amar Ujala, the group was returning home after completing their pilgrimage in Haridwar when the incident took place. The private bus lost control and struck the rear of a state roadways bus traveling ahead of it.

The condition of the injured is currently being monitored. Police have initiated an investigation to determine the exact cause of the collision. While no fatalities have been officially reported, several passengers suffered serious injuries.

The local administration has begun the process of notifying the Nepali embassy to ensure that the families of the pilgrims are kept informed about the situation.

This incident comes as a major setback for the pilgrims who were on their way home after their journey. Police have started recording statements from the roadways bus driver and other witnesses to piece together the sequence of events.
