At least 27 children have been killed when their school bus skidded off a mountain road and plummeted into a gorge in the foothills of the Himalayas.
Some of the victims of the crash in India, which also killed three adults, were as young as four years old.
At least a dozen people were taken to nearby hospitals.
The bus driver was speeding and lost control at the edge of the gorge, with the bus crashing some 200 feet to the ground below, police officer Sunil Kumar said.
Rescuers were still digging through the wreckage after nightfall looking for more survivors, Kumar said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said in a tweet: "I am deeply anguished by the loss of lives.
"My prayers and solidarity with those who lost their near and dear ones."
The accident occurred in the Kangra Valley, about 300 miles north of New Delhi.
India's roads, particularly in the hills, have long been feared for their deep potholes, reckless drivers and often a lack of guardrails.
