Over 50 discharged, 102 still receiving treatment, PTI quotes UP minister as saying.

"Today more than 50 passengers, who had received minor injuries, were sent to their homes after treatment. The government is extending all possible help to the stranded passengers so that they could reach their destination," UP Cabinet minister Satish Mahana told PTI.



Mahana said he had reached the accident site around 10.00 pm yesterday. "Nearly 102 passengers are still receiving treatment in government and private hospitals in Muzaffarnagar and Meerut. Free medicine is being provided to them," he said.



The state government was also providing food and accommodation to passengers' relatives who are reaching Muzaffarnagar, he said.



Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had yesterday asked senior ministers Suresh Rana and Satish Mahana to reach the accident site. The CM also spoke with the Muzaffarnagar district magistrate and instructed him to ensure all possible relief, an official spokesperson had said.
