A train in western India has ran over migrant workers sleeping on the tracks, killing at least 16 among a group of people returning to their villages, according to officials.
Tens of thousands of labourers have been walking home from India's key cities after losing their jobs in recent weeks because of a lockdown imposed to contain the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
