A tragic bus accident in Nepal has resulted in at least 14 fatalities and 16 injuries after a bus carrying 40 Indian passengers plunged into the Marsyangdi River while traveling from Pokhara to Kathmandu. The bus fell approximately 150 meters down a slope, and rescue operations are ongoing, complicated by heavy monsoon rains that have increased river flow. Authorities, including police and the Armed Police Force, have retrieved 14 bodies and are working to locate additional missing individuals. The bus was registered in Uttar Pradesh, India, and was part of a popular route for Indian tourists, raising concerns about the safety of mountainous travel in Nepal. This incident marks the second serious bus accident in the region within a month, as challenges such as narrow roads and adverse weather conditions persist. Rescue efforts are being coordinated with officials from Uttar Pradesh to assist in the situation.
