Cops later sent the dead bodies to RIMS (Ranchi Institute of Medical Sciences) for an autopsy and informed the bus owner and respected families of the two deceased. Meanwhile, a forensic probe of the incident has also been initiated to ascertain the exact reason of fire and the death of the two men. It is also being ascertained why they could not come out of the bus after the fire initiated. On Tuesday, Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren tweeted about the incident and expressed grief for the deceased men and their families. The netizens however are demanding compensation for their families.

रांची के खादगढ़ा बस स्टैंड में बस में आग लगने से ड्राइवर और खलासी की मृत्यु अत्यंत पीड़ादायक है।
परमात्मा दिवंगत आत्माओं को शांति प्रदान कर शोकाकुल परिवारों को दुःख की विकट घड़ी सहन करने की शक्ति दे।
