We carried out all security guidelines: bus operator

A fortnight after the accident in which 45 passengers were charred to death in a Hyderabad-bound bus from the city, the Tipu Sultan Palace Road in Kalasipalya, once again witnessed chaotic scenes on Thursday morning. While families of the accident victims were yet to reach the agency, Shakeel Ahmed, partner of National Travels Zameer Ahmed Khan Associates, maintained that all the necessary security measures were in place in the bus. Mr. Shakeel Ahmed said Volvo Buses too must be held accountable for the accident as the bus, costing Rs. The agency representatives said that there could also be a possible flaw in the bus design leading to the accident. While some survivors claimed that the bus was travelling at a speed of over 100 kmph, Mr. Shakeel Ahmed said the bus could not go beyond 90 kmph due to speed governors.
