New Delhi: At least 25 pilgrims on way to Ajmer Dargah were killed as their bus caught fire after it hit a stationary truck in Bahraich district Friday night. About 70 pilgrims were no board the bus and so it is feared the toll could rise up.
According to media reports, the pilgrims hired a bus and set for Ajmer. They were to take first halt in Bahraich when the bus collided with a truck loaded with sand. It is said some pilgrims were carrying gas cylinders.
