BADIN, June 22: Some 34 persons, majority of them children and women, were injured in two road accidents here during the last 24 hours.

An Ali Bander-bound passenger bus, coming from Hyderabad, overturned while crossing a bulldozer standing on the road in Badin town. As many as 25 passengers were injured.

The injured were admitted to the Badin Civil Hospital, most of whom were discharged on Saturday.

Nine labourers were injured when a Badin-bound truck, loaded with forest wood, overturned near Kadhan on Friday.

Two of the injured, identified as Mohammad Juman and Abdul Hussain, were shifted to the Hyderabad Civil Hospital in critical condition.

The driver of the bus, Nabi Buksh Mallah, presented himself at the Model police station while the driver of the truck fled away.

SUSPENDED: On the recommendation of the District Promotion Committee (DPC) of the education department, the services of three teachers were placed under suspension.

The DPC found false signatures over the ACRs and also the certificates of the DEO pass of Faqir Mohammad, Asif Ali and Abid Ali Khwaja seemed to be fictitious.

A report of the matter was also sent to the EDO (education).
