Chandigarh, September 13, 2025
Haryana Transport Minister, Sh. Anil Vij today took strong cognizance of the tragic road accident in Sirsa, where a Haryana Roadways bus collided with a tractor-trolley, resulting in the death of two women. He immediately directed the Additional Chief Secretary of the Transport Department to conduct an inquiry into the incident.
Sh. Vij said that a dedicated committee will be constituted to investigate accidents involving Haryana Roadways buses. The committee will comprise technical officers as well as police investigation officers, ensuring that accountability is established and appropriate action is taken against those found at fault.
Directing to ACS, Transport Department, the Minister said that “I want a clear investigation into whether the fault lies with the Roadways bus driver or the tractor driver. It is essential for us to know the facts. From now on, it will be a set practice in the Transport Department that every accident involving a Haryana Roadways bus will be formally investigated. A committee with both technical experts and police officers will determine responsibility, and if any of our bus drivers are found guilty of negligence, strict action will follow.” The Minister emphasized that this initiative will strengthen accountability and enhance road safety within Haryana’s public transport system.
Notably, earlier this morning in Ellenabad, Sirsa, a Haryana Roadways bus collided with a tractor-trolley. Two women traveling in the trolley lost their lives, while seven others sustained injuries. The injured were rushed to the Civil Hospital, where they are currently undergoing treatment.
