Breaking: Major Mecca-Medina Bus-Tanker Crash Kills 42 Hyderabad Pilgrims, Owaisi Reacted

A major tragedy unfolded on the Mecca–Medina route when a bus carrying Indian pilgrims collided with a tanker, resulting in the death of forty-two people. All of the deceased were Indian nationals and reportedly belonged to Hyderabad. The collision caused an intense blaze, leaving passengers with almost no time to escape, according to early accounts of the incident. Reacting to the situation, Asaduddin Owaisi expressed deep concern and said he had reached out to the two travel agencies involved in organizing the pilgrimage, Flyzone Tours and Al Makkah Haj & Umrah Travels. He stated that he requested complete visa details of all passengers who had departed from Hyderabad for the pilgrimage. Owaisi also said that he contacted the Indian Embassy in Riyadh, where he held discussions with DMC Abu Mathen George regarding the tragedy. According to him, embassy officials assured that the matter would be investigated further and that they were coordinating available information.
