According to The Quint, the video is not from Birbhum but Odisha’s Ganjam district, where at least nine people were killed and 35 more injured when a bus caught fire in February 2020 after coming in contact with a live electric wire.
The bus came in contact with a 11-KV power transmission line near Golanthara in Ganjam district.
