A roof at Delhi airport has collapsed after heavy rain, killing one person and injuring eight others.

According to BBC News, a spokesperson for the airport says, while the cause for the collapse is being assessed, the primary cause seems to be the continued heavy rainfall over the past few hours.

Officials said four vehicles were damaged and eight people received minor injuries in the incident.

Authorities at the Delhi International Airport Limited said a technical committee had been formed to investigate the cause of the accident.
