A stampede on a footbridge at a Mumbai railway station has left 22 people dead and injured more than 30, Indian officials report.
The tragedy occurred during the morning rush hour at Elphinstone station, which connects two major local lines.
It was triggered by overcrowding and people seeking shelter from monsoon rains, the officials said.
The injured have been taken to a nearby hospital and senior railway officials are at the scene.
