At least 12 migrant labourers were injured when their bus overturned after hitting a road divider some 45-km from here on Tuesday, police said.

Two of the labourers sustained severe injuries in the accident near Khanna and they were taken to a hospital in Patiala, the police said.

The labourers were going to Bihar. After providing them first-aid they were sent in another bus, the police said.

It appears that the accident took place because the bus driver fell asleep behind the wheel, they said.
