Six Kanwariyas died and 24 were injured in a tragic bus-truck collision in Jharkhand's Deoghar district during the Kanwar Yatra on Tuesday morning.

At least six Kanwariyas were killed and 24 others injured on Tuesday after a collision took place between a bus with passengers on board and a truck, loaded with cooking gas cylinders, in Jharkhand's Deoghar district, officials said.

Following the collision, the driver fell from the bus and the passenger vehicle, without anyone behind the steering wheel, continued moving for some time and stopped after hitting a stack of bricks, the IG said.

May Baba Baidyanath grant peace to the souls of the devotees who died in the accident and give strength to the bereaved families to bear this moment of grief," Soren posted on X.

"The news of the death of many devotees in the bus accident while Kanwariyas were going to Basukinath from Deoghar is extremely sad and painful. I express my deepest condolences to the bereaved families and pray to Baba Bholenath for speedy recovery of the injured devotees," Gangwar posted on X.
Deoghar Sub Divisional Officer Ravi Kumar said the Kanwariyas were on their way to the Basukinath temple.

There was an altercation between the kanwariyas and a group of men near a shop. As the pilgrims moved ahead, about six men intercepted them near a petrol station between the villages of Raipur and Chandoora and attacked them.
The Mohammadpur Khala police station is located close to the scene, and personnel responded promptly.
"There was a confrontation that escalated into a minor clash," said Circle Officer (Fatehpur) Jagat Ram Kanaujia.

It was not immediately known what the dispute that led to the clash was about.
