Twelve people have been k!lled and dozens more injured after a bus crashed into a concrete structure and was sliced in half in India.
The vehicle was on its way from the Salasar Balaji Temple, a significant place of worship, in Rajasthan's Sikar when it drove into a part of the flyover in Laxmangarh, India, as it took a turn.
Police believe it was speeding at the time of the crash.
So far 12 people have d!ed, including the unnamed driver. Around 40 people are recorded as injured.
Photos from the scene show the mangled remains of the bus. A crane was used to move the wreckage as the search for survivors continues.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma said on X: "The loss of life in the bus accident in Sikar's Laxmangarh area is extremely sad and heartbreaking. My deepest condolences are with the bereaved families of the dece@sed.
"The concerned officials have been directed to ensure proper treatment of the injured. I pray to Lord Shri Ram to give place to the departed souls in his feet and grant speedy recovery to the injured."
Families of those k!lled in the accident will be given 200,000 Indian Rupees (around £1,829), according to India's prime minister Narendra Modi. Those hurt in the crash will get 50,000 Indian Rupees (£450).
Those injured have been taken to Jaipur. Some of the de@d have been named locally and efforts are continuing to identify the rest. Family members have been informed where possible.
Rajasthan Pradesh Congress Committee President Govind Singh Dotasra added: "My deepest condolences to those who lost their loved ones in this sad and unfortunate accident.
