Unfortunately, a bus from the Manmad depot was involved in a terrible accident near Matewadi, close to Chandwad town.

While en route from Manmad depot to Nanduri, the ST bus was involved in a fatal accident near Matewadi in Chandwad Shivara on its return journey.

Sadly, the woman conductor, Sarika Lahire, lost her life at the scene, and another female passenger passed away while receiving medical treatment.

The impact of the accident was so intense that it shattered one side of the bus. The woman bus conductor lost her life immediately.
