At least 24 people were killed and 11 others injured when a container truck collided with a bus in India’s northeastern state of Assam, police said. Officials said several children and the bus driver were among the dead.
The collision happened on 13 November on a highway in Golaghat district, near Kaziranga National Park. The bus was traveling to a neighboring district with about 30 people aboard, Golaghat police superintendent Swapnaneel Deka told Reuters, as cited by Al Jazeera. Deka said the death toll was likely to rise.
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said local authorities were at the crash site overseeing relief arrangements to ensure that injured people received medical care without delay.
