The bus was heading to Kartike Deurali village, among the worst hit by the quake, which killed nearly 9,000 people in the country. She said she and other survivors struggled to climb back up to the road after the crash. “It appeared that the bodies were ejected as the bus rolled down the slope, so I am sure more bodies will be found,” Gautam said. Officials said the bus plunged off the road and rolled about 150 metres (500 ft). Many of the bus accidents in the country happen during the monsoon season, which begins in June and ends in September.
