A major tragedy was narrowly averted on Pali Road near Jodhpur last night when a Bengaluru-bound private luxury bus caught fire.
Sparks unexpectedly erupted from the Euro-6 engine area, quickly filling the cabin with thick smoke and panic. Demonstrating immense presence of mind, the driver immediately pulled over to the roadside and successfully evacuated all 16 passengers before flames fully engulfed the vehicle.
Three fire tenders took thirty minutes to control the blaze. While some luggage was lost, police confirmed that zero injuries occurred thanks to the swift rescue.
