The incident police said occurred at 7.30 am when the Bus belonging to  Ramtek Depot was on way to Parsheoni and thereafter would have gone to Kondhali.

The impact of the dash was so powerful that the bus was knocked of the road after the Truck ripped through one of its side. The injured are admitted to Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital (IGMCH) and many of them are nursing their serious injuries and listed as critical, the police have said.
The 42-seater bus of Ramtek depot (MH-40/9964) was going to Parsheoni from Ramtek and 35 passengers were seated in the ill fated vehicle when the tragedy cut short the journey. The bus driver took a turn for Parsheoni at Amdi by-pass when the truck (UP-70/BT-3626) loaded with chilly rammed into the bus. The truck was coming from Nagpur and was heading towards the Jabalpur while the bus drive took a turn for Parsheoni when the collision occurred, the police concurred after the spot inspection. The bus was dragged for nearly 50 feet by the truck which eye witnesses said was being driven at menancing speed. The bus came to halt after the truck dashed into a gas tanker (NL-01/K-6671) parked by road side. However by that time the truck had lost the speed and hence the impact of crash into tanker did not explode into another big tragedy.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script also ha

Longest cable-stayed bridge to boost tourism at Ambhora

By
CONSTRUCTION work of 700-metre-long cable-stayed bridge, longest in the country, with a viewing gallery at the top at Ambhora in Kuhi tehsil is near completion. The bridge would be open for traffic in December this year providing a major boost to tourism at Shree Chaitanyeshwar Mahadev temple at Ambhora. It is set to open doors of development for the backward area of Kuhi and Umred tehsil. Ambhora, located 75 km from Nagpur city, is a famous religious and tourist place in Vidarbha. It is situated at the confluence of five rivers -- Wainganga, Kanhan, Aam, Kolari and Murza. Just around a decade ago the river bank housing Ambhora used to see a flux of tourists from all over the State. However, the banks were submerged in water after the construction of Gosikhurd dam which led to rise in water levels. Since then, tourist flow at Ambhora has also declined. However, now with the construction of the new bridge tourists will get a chance see the scenic backwaters across the river bed which is
