21 people have reportedly been struck dead by lightning in eastern India.
The lightning struck several part of the country killing 18 in Odisha state, and another three died in Jharkhand state.
10 people were also injured by the widespread bolts as storms erupted over rice paddies, as it is reported that most victims of the lightning were farmers working on their farms.
But in Jharkhand, two brothers in Kharswan district were killed when the lightning penetrated the thatched roof of their house.
