BMTC bus conductor stabbed by passenger after being warned for standing near door in Bengaluru
Bengaluru: A BMTC Volvo bus conductor was stabbed by a passenger near the Whitefield police station in Bengaluru after advising him to move away from the footboard for safety reasons.
The incident occurred when 45-year-old conductor Yogesh requested Harsh Sinha, a 25-year-old man from Jharkhand, to step back from the bus door while it was in motion. Enraged by the warning, Sinha, who had recently lost his job at a BPO in the city on September 20, assaulted and stabbed the conductor in the stomach.
Following the attack, passengers managed to restrain Sinha inside the bus. In a video that surfaced online, the accused can be seen breaking the glass and doors of the bus in an attempt to escape, causing panic among other commuters.
Passengers subsequently handed Sinha over to the Whitefield Police. The injured conductor was provided with immediate medical assistance, and the police have launched an investigation into the case. Further details are awaited.

Trump’s fresh threat to bomb Iran amid reports of deal to end war
Washington (PTI): US President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened Iran with more bombing if it doesn't reopen the Strait of Hormuz, amid a report that the warring sides were nearing an agreement to end the war.
US media outlet Axios reported, quoting US officials and two other sources, that the US and Iran were getting close to a one-page memorandum of understanding to end the war and set a framework for more detailed nuclear negotiations.
The US expects Iranian responses on several key points over the next 48 hours, Axios reported, adding that nothing has been agreed yet. This was the closest the parties had been to an agreement since the war began.
"Assuming Iran agrees to give what has been agreed to, which is, perhaps, a big assumption, the already legendary Epic Fury will be at an end, and the highly effective Blockade will allow the Hormuz Strait to be OPEN TO ALL, including Iran," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
"If they don’t agree, the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before," Trump said.
According to Axios, the deal would involve Iran committing to a moratorium on nuclear enrichment, the US agreeing to lift its sanctions and release billions in frozen Iranian funds, and both sides lifting restrictions around transit through the Strait of Hormuz.
It said many of the terms laid out in the memo would be contingent on a final agreement being reached, leaving the possibility of renewed war or an extended limbo in which the hot war has stopped, but nothing is truly resolved.
