Kannur: About 34 passengers were injured after two state-owned Kerala State Road Transportation Corporation (KSRTC) buses collided in a deadly crash near Kallerirammala in Kannur at 3 PM, on Monday.

 

Heavy rainfall and poor visibility are believed to have caused the accident which occurred on a narrow stretch of the main road.

 

 

While one passenger’s condition is reported to be serious, the others sustained minor injuries. All the injured have been hospitalized, and no fatalities have been reported. The deadly crash was captured on CCTV.

 

 

Local residents initiated rescue operations, later joined by the Fire Department and Police, who swiftly transported the injured to nearby hospitals. Preliminary investigations indicate that reduced visibility due to the rain was a major contributing factor to the collision.
