Before being removed on a stretcher, rescuers also used ropes to remove a dead body.

According to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the affected people will receive whatever assistance is available.

“My thoughts are with the victim’s families at this terrible hour. I hope those who were hurt get better as soon as possible,” he tweeted on Wednesday.

India has many fatal road accidents because of careless driving, badly maintained roads, and old vehicles.

According to the authorities, more than 110,000 people in the country are killed in traffic accidents yearly.
