In the Indian village of Pungodu, Kerala, a temporary stand collapsed in a crowded stadium. This is reported by The Indian Express.

The incident occurred during a sevens football match between two local teams. More than two thousand fans were on the collapsed podium. According to police estimates, about 200 people received various injuries.

All those injured during the collapse were taken to hospitals. The Indian Express writes that there were no serious injuries. Asian News International says five people were seriously injured, according to police.

Sevens football is a form of football that is popular in southwestern India. Unlike regular football, seven players from each team take part in the game, and the size of the field is somewhat smaller.

Earlier it was reported that in the Indian state of Bihar, where there is a dry law, at least 10 people died due to the use of smuggled alcohol during the spring Holi festival. Numerous poisonings led to protests in the city of Sahibganj.
