NEW DELHI – At least four people died and one was injured when a huge tree fell on their house as heavy rains and thunderstorm hit the Indian capital city and its nearby areas on Friday.
The tree fell on the one-room house of the family in the southwest Kharkhadi Nahar village. The house was situated in an agriculture field. The deceased included a 28-year-old woman and her three children. The woman’s husband was injured and admitted to a local hospital.
The thunderstorm coupled with heavy rains caused water-logging and traffic disruptions due to falling trees in many parts of Delhi and other affected areas.
