Slack enforcement by Kerala MVD, police blamed for tourist buses flouting safety norms

Personnel of Kerala MVD and the police have yet again been caught napping, even as Kerala woke up on Thursday to the horrific news of a rashly-driven tourist bus that rammed into the rear of a KSRTC superfast bus at Palakkad, resulting in the death of nine. The bus was taking school students on an Ooty tour and was found to be over-speeding at 97.20 km per hour.
