A passenger bus carrying dozens of members of a music troupe slid off a highway and fell into a gorge in western India on Saturday, killing 13 people and injuring 29 others, police said.

Zende said most of the passengers who died were part of the music troupe from Mumbai.

He said rescue workers pulled the badly injured from the wreckage of the bus and sent them to a hospital.

Deadly road accidents are common in India due to reckless driving, poorly maintained roads and ageing vehicles. More than 110,000 people are killed every year in road accidents across India, according to police.
