The collapse occurred while Hindus were gathering for a festival for the deity Rama. Officials said the iron grill and tile cover apparently wasn't able to handle the weight of the people on it. Eighteen people were injured and one person was still unaccounted for Friday. Rescuers used ropes and ladders to pull out bodies after pumping the water out of the well.
