The accident occurred when the bus (BA 2 Kha 7063) carrying pilgrims to Halesi of Khotang from Kathmandu met with an accident at  Thakle-8, Suklatar of Okhaldhunga today afternoon. The bus  had skidded off the road and fell some 300 meters down.

Two of the deceased have been identified as Bishnu Bahadur Shrestha, 63, and Sabitri Maya Shrestha, both from Ratamate, Sindhuli, District Police Office, Okhaldhunga said.  The identity of another deceased is yet to be known. All three had died on the spot.

Police said at least 40 passengers were rescued from the site of the accident and are being transported to Kathmandu for medical treatment.   

Although police said they are still investigating the cause of the accident, but they suspect that the fact  that the bus was carrying passengers beyond its capacity in a difficult hilly road could have led to the mishap. Nepalnews.com
