Four people, including two children, died when a speeding bus collided with the car they were traveling in on the Hyderabad-Vijayawada National Highway in Nalgonda district, Telangana, early on July 5. The car, carrying five passengers from Chennai to Hyderabad, was hit from behind near Chityal, where flyover construction had reduced traffic to a single carriageway.
