NEW DELHI, Jan. 28 (Xinhua) -- At least seven persons died and more than 50 were injured when a makeshift stage installed for devotees at a religious congregation collapsed in India's northern state of Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday, a local police officer said over the phone.

There were several women and children among the victims of the incident, which occurred in Uttar Pradesh's Baghpat district, according to the police.

The makeshift stage was made of bamboo and wood. It collapsed as it failed to bear the weight of people standing over it.

There was a commotion soon after the incident occurred. Those injured were admitted to a local hospital. Enditem
