Major accident on Agra-Lucknow Expressway, over 50 injured

A double-decker bus heading from Bihar to Delhi overturned while trying to overtake on the Agra-Lucknow Expressway early Thursday.
Sadly, two people lost their lives, and about 50 others were hurt in the crash near Saifai.

TL;DR

Most injuries were minor

The bus was packed—between 55 and 80 passengers—when it skidded off the road.
Most injuries were minor, but a couple of people are in critical condition.
Emergency teams rushed everyone to Saifai Medical University for treatment.
The accident is a tough reminder of how risky overtaking can be on fast highways, and why better road safety really matters for everyone traveling long distances.
