A crowded bus in India went off the road and fell into a deep gorge on Monday, resulting in at least 36 deaths and several injuries.

The accident took place in the Almora district of the mountainous state of Uttarakhand. The bus, which was transporting approximately 60 passengers, resulted in over 20 injuries, according to Deepak Rawat, a senior official in the state government, per AP News.

Authorities previously stated that they believed there were 42 passengers on board, matching the bus’s full capacity.

Rescue and relief teams were dispatched to the site. Officials expressed concerns that the death toll could continue to rise, particularly as seven hospitalized passengers remained in critical condition.
