Guwahati: In a shocking incident, a Shyamoli Paribahan bus traveling from Tripura to Kolkata was attacked in Brahmanbaria’s Bishwa Road area in Bangladesh.
The Indian passengers on board were left terrified after the vehicle came under a deliberate assault.
The incident occurred when a goods-laden truck intentionally rammed into the bus while it was moving along Bishwa Road. Simultaneously, an auto-rickshaw collided with the bus.
