India, Nov. 13 -- The passengers who survived the deadly bus-truck collision in Assam's Golaghat on Friday claimed that the bus was overcrowded and travelling at a very high speed when the driver lost control and swerved into the wrong lane. The truck driver also alleged that the bus entered his lane, leading to the crash.

"The bus had too many passengers. Around 50 per cent of them were standing, and even the cabin space, which was supposed to be free, was filled with passengers," said 30-year-old Moksudul Islam, one of the survivors of Friday's deadly road accident near Kaziranga, Assam, alleging that the vehicle was carrying nearly twice its seating capacity when it collided with a goods-carrying truck.

At least 25 people were killed...
