According to the police control room, the accident took place on the Jaipur-Agra highway at around 4.30 am near Hantra in Bharatpur district, about 160 km east of Jaipur, the capital city of Rajasthan.

"A trailer rammed into it from behind, killing 11 people and injuring 15 others," a senior police official said.
