“While Pavani was busy helping Rishi get into the bus, Bhavishya went in front of the bus. All of a sudden the driver moved the bus ahead and ran over the girl. Apparently he did not notice the girl in front of the bus and went ahead,” said Jawaharnagar sub inspector, Anil Kumar.

The locals immediately rushed the girl to a local hospital where doctors pronounced her dead. A case is registered against the driver of the bus for rash and negligent driving. The police arrested the driver and seized the bus.
