AIMIM MLA Mir Zulfeqar Ali visited the Vikarabad government hospital on Tuesday to meet and console the survivors of the tragic Chevella bus accident. The accident, which occurred on Monday morning near Chevella in Ranga Reddy district, claimed the lives of at least 19 people, including a 41-day-old infant, after a gravel-laden tipper lorry collided head-on with a Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC) bus. The impact of the crash was so severe that several passengers were trapped inside, prompting an extensive rescue operation by local authorities.

According to official reports, the tipper truck, heavily loaded with gravel and stone chips, was overtaking multiple vehicles when it lost control and rammed into the oncoming bus. Dozens of passengers sustained serious injuries and were rushed to nearby hospitals in Chevella and Vikarabad for treatment. The incident has triggered widespread grief across Telangana, with leaders and citizens expressing their condolences to the bereaved families and demanding stricter road safety enforcement to prevent such tragedies.

AIMIM president and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi described the accident as “horrifying” in a post on X, urging authorities to ensure fair compensation for victims and hold those responsible accountable. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy have also announced ex-gratia relief for the deceased and the injured. MLA Mir Zulfeqar Ali assured families of all possible assistance and emphasized that his party stands with the victims during this difficult time.
