At least 36 people have died and several have been injured after a bus fell into a gorge in India’s northern state of Uttarakhand.
Officials said 44 people were on board when the driver lost control and the bus fell into a 50m-deep ditch in Marchula, located in the state’s Almora district.
The state government has ordered an inquiry into the accident.
Buses are the main mode of transport in the Himalayan state and accidents are not uncommon.
