    The buses KSRTC especially plying towards Kasaragod / Kerala move in reckless driving. Recently I have witnessed with own experience. The drivers don't have time to stop the buses even in heavy traffic situation. They don't care police or Law. Should rake action against such mad dogs rightaway.

    Parents must be punished severely for not taking care of this baby
    If the parents don't want to take care the child don't want to help her to cross the road or busy with their business then why they want children? Poor angel how much pain she must have gone through!!

    may her soul RIP .. but the question is how easy parents or institution care takers while such a small kid crossing highway without adult supervision . its risky to be near less traffic lanes and wonder how it will be on highway ..we cannot blame drivers who will be on high speed anyway ..
