Online Desk: At least 10 people were killed and 57 injured today when a double-decker bus fell into a gorge after skidding off a bridge in India’s Jammu district. The bus was carrying pilgrims to Katra from Amritsar and met with the accident in Jhajjar Kotli area, reports our New Delhi correspondent quoting police sources.

Katra is a base camp for the pilgrims visiting the famous Vaishno Devi shrine atop the Trikuta hills. “The accident took place at Jhajjar Kotli bridge. Ten people have died. Rescue operation is almost complete,” Jammu’s Senior Superintendent of Police Chandan Kohli told PTI.

However, the death toll may go up as few of the injured were in critical state, sources said.
