5 migrants were killed while 15 others were injured as a truck carrying migrants met an accident in Madhya Pradesh.
The group of 20 started their journey from Hyderabad and they were headed to Madhya Pradesh's Jhansi city and a town in Uttar Pradesh in a truck carrying mangoes.
The truck overturned in a village in Narsinghpur, said officials. Those injured have been admitted to a hospital, they said, adding that two of them are critical.
All of them were tested for coronavirus after one labourer showed symptoms of the highly contagious illness, which has infected over 60,000 across the country and killed more than 1,900.
