Three passengers died when they were thrown out of the bus. Four more passengers were hit and killed by another bus three minutes later when they were trying to crawl out of the vehicle.
Ten injured passengers were sent to hospital for treatment.
The highway reopened to traffic on Monday. Traffic police are investigating the accident.
