A bus carrying pilgrims turned turtle in Ludhiana district's Doraha in the early hours of Monday, injuring over a dozen passengers.
The injured were rushed to the Civil Hospital. Those seriously wounded have been undergoing medical treatment in the hospital.
"A total of 18 patients were brought in. Out of which five have been admitted. For the others, tea and snacks have been arranged and they will be discharged soon," Senior Medical Officer, Dr Geeta told ANI.
