A severe bus fire tragedy in Kurnool has resulted in the deaths of 20 people, including two children. The incident, which occurred early Friday, has been attributed to alleged negligent and over-speed driving by two bus drivers.

According to police, the Bengaluru-bound private bus caught fire after colliding with a motorcycle, dragging the vehicle with its fuel cap open. This collision caused sparks that ignited a deadly blaze, leaving victims charred beyond recognition.
