According to preliminary reports, the metro bus was navigating its usual route when it encountered a broken iron rod left unattended on the tracks.
As the bus hit the obstruction, it lost control, swerving dangerously before coming to a halt. Passengers on board were jolted and thrown off balance.
This resulted in injuries to eight women passengers, who were transported to Mayo Hospital for medical assistance.
The accident occurred during the morning rush hour, raising concerns over Lahore's bustling metro bus system.
Rescue services, including ambulances and first responders, were swiftly dispatched to the scene.
Eyewitnesses described a scene of chaos as the bus veered off its intended path, prompting panic among passengers.
Local authorities, in the meantime, have launched an investigation into the incident to determine the cause of the broken rod and whether there was any negligence involved.
