India tent collapse kills 14

At least 14 people were killed and more than 50 injured when heavy rain and strong winds caused a huge tent to collapse in the Indian state of Rajasthan on Sunday.

Reports say, some were electrocuted by live wires as the tent caved in, and others killed by falling debris while some 300 people had gathered inside the tent for a religious event.

The collapse took place in the Barmer district of the North-Western state.
