12 people died and more than 30 were injured after the floor collapsed in a temple in the city of Indore in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh.
A large number of Hindu pilgrims were present at the temple on the occasion of Ram Navami festival.
When the floor of the temple broke, the Hindu pilgrims coming to worship fell on the steps leading to the well below.
17 people injured in the accident have been evacuated, many of whom are undergoing treatment at the hospital, which took place at the Beleshwar Mahadev temple.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh made statements of condemnation and directed all possible relief efforts.
