Lucknow, Dec 14 (IANS) Six persons were killed and several others injured on the Agra-Lucknow expressway when a bus collided with a truck on Wednesday morning.
The injured have been admitted to a nearby hospital.
Chief minister Yogi Adityanath has expressed grief at the incident and directed officials to ensure proper treatment to the injured.
"The vehicle was on its way from Udhampur to Jammu when it went out of the driver's control and rolled down into a deep gorge near Jambhu Zoo."In the incident, three persons identified as Gurdeep Singh, Sham Lal and Vikas Kumar, all residents of Punjab, died on the spot".
Asking Mann not to become a puppet in the hands of Kejriwal, the SAD President said: "The Chief Minister should take review meetings of the law and order situation as well as ensure those responsible for flaring communal tensions in the recent Patiala clash are brought to task instead of keeping himself busy by deputing Punjab Police teams to Delhi to arrest opponents of AAP."
According to central agencies, the 14 kg heroin seized in four different cases were meant to be transported to cities like Delhi and Mumbai.
The arrested persons have been identified as Akashdeep alias Akash from Ferozepur, and Jashanpreet Singh alias Jass from Faridkot.
Farmers union members are also expected to meet local authorities seeking a speedy trial in the case. Farmer leaders claim that MoS for Home Ajay Mishra Teni continues to remain in office despite past assurances from government of looking into the matter.
In a video message, Mann said the recruitment for 26,454 vacancies in 25 different departments would be accomplished in a corruption-free and impartial manner.
