Mathura. A major accident took place on the Yamuna Expressway in Mathura in the early hours of Tuesday due to the collision of several vehicles. Everything was burnt due to fire at the accident site. 42 year old Parvati Devi got trapped in the burning bus. They had only a few seconds to escape.

His elder son Akash Kumar said, “The pieces of broken glass hit his neck.”
Identification of the dead difficult
It is difficult to identify those killed because the bodies are badly burnt. Rural SP Suresh Chand Rawat said that DNA test will find out whether Parvati is also among those who died or not. Parvati was going to Noida with her two children from Hamirpur, where her husband Govind lives. As soon as the news of the accident was received, her son, husband and brother-in-law Gulzari reached Mathura. But till now no trace of Parvati has been found.
