Chandigarh/IBNS: Three Congress workers, who were on the way to newly-appointed state party chief Navjot Singh Sidhu's swearing-in ceremony, were killed in a bus accident in the Moga district of Punjab Friday morning.

Around 24 people have been injured in the accident, which occurred at around 8 am.

All the injured have been rescued.

The accident occurred when the bus, which was carrying the Congress workers, speeded and rammed into another bus.

The Congress workers were heading to Chandigarh where Sidhu will swear in as the Punjab unit president.

Mourning the losses of lives, Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh tweeted, "Saddened to learn of the bus accident in Moga district in which 3 Congress workers have reportedly died & many persons are injured. Have directed DC Moga to immediately provide full medical treatment to all the injured and to send a report to the Government."
