NEW DELHI -- A building wall collapsed onto guests at a wedding in western India, killing at least 22 people, police said Thursday. The hundreds of guests were having dinner or assembling on the outdoor lawns when a strong dust storm blew into the area Wednesday night, forcing people on the lawns to go indoors. Another 28 people were injured and have been hospitalized, police officer Anil Tank told Press Trust of India. It wasn't clear if the dust storm was a factor. In 2013, a building being constructed illegally in Mumbai caved in, killing 74 people in the country's worst building collapse in decades.
