On information, fire service vehicles rushed to the spot and brought the fire under control. But in the meantime, the bus was almost burnt.
Later, university vice-chancellor Muhammad Nurullah and proctor Chowdhury Muhammad Zakaria visited the scene.
They said it could not be ascertained who were responsible for the fire. The university authorities would form a probe body to investigate into the incident.
