Twelve people were injured today in an accident when two buses toppled on the road in Nawakkulama, Madawachchiya.

Madawachchiya police said the busses which had skidded off the road had toppled due to the high rainfall in the area.

Police said the Sri Lanka Transport Board (SLTB) bus which was travelling from Kilinochchi to Anuradhapura had collided with a Sri Lankan Navy bus travelling from Anuradhapura to Vavuniya and the two buses had toppled on the road.

The injured has been admitted to the Vavuniya Hospital and further investigations have been launched by the Medawachchiya Police. (Romesh Madushanka and Piyumi Fonseka)

    The Police continue to overlook the terrible manner in which these bus drivers drive. How much more people have to suffer due to this
