The Maharashtra Motor Vehicle Department has requested the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) to conduct a thorough review of the design and safety measures implemented in sleeper coach buses.
The move came after the last week’s horrific tragedy on the Samruddhi Expressway where a sleeper coach bus caught fire causing the death of 25 passengers.
“We have requested the ARAI to re-inspect the design of sleeper buses,” said Vivek Bhimanwar, transport commissioner of Maharashtra.
