Over 100 dead and 100 missing after ferry sinks during storm in India

More than 100 people are dead and another 100 still missing after a horrific ferry accident in India.

Army divers and rescue workers pulled 103 bodies out of a river after a packed ferry boat capsized in heavy winds and rain in a remote area of the country's north-east, an official said this morning.

At least 100 people were still missing after the boat carrying about 350 passengers broke into two pieces late on Monday, said Pritam Saikia, the district magistrate of Goalpara district.
