Six children from a family were killed when a wall of their house collapsed, police said Thursday.
The accident took place late Wednesday at Bharthu village at the outskirts of the Kanpur city.
Daily wage labourer Chutu Kori escaped with minor injuries but all his six children, who were aged from two years to 14 years, were buried under the wall's rubble. Kori's wife was at home at the time the wall collapsed.
