We then started out journey but the inevitable happened only around five minutes later. While climbing up the hilly road, the bus stopped for a while and started rolling back dangerously.”
"I heard the driver screaming at his helper to put a log beneath the wheels and stop the bus. But it could not be stopped from falling down," said Ershad before he was punctuated by the doctors declaring his friend Sunnydead.
Ershad could not finish his spine-chilling story as he watched the ward boys taking away the body of his friend who was receiving treatment lying just beside him only moments before.
