Pune: A video that has gone viral shows a school bus carrying nearly 35 to 40 students getting stuck in a deep pothole in the Dhatrak Phata area of Nashik on Wednesday morning. The incident occurred while the bus was en route to school.

The visuals show one end of the bus badly stuck in the pothole. They further show that the bus tyre became trapped in the mud, while the children on board were seen in a state of panic.

Bus pulled out by locals

Meanwhile, it is believed that continuous heavy rainfall in Nashiksince the previous day caused the road to cave in, making the pothole difficult to spot. Following the incident, local residents, with the help of Corporator Priyanka Mane, managed to pull the bus out of the pothole.

Fortunately, no students were injured in the incident.
