More than 430 people have died in two Indian states from a days-long heatwave that has seen temperatures nudging 122 degrees Fahrenheit or 50 degrees celcius. Officials warned the toll was almost certain to rise, with figures still being collected in some parts of the hard-hit Telangana state in the south of the country. Large parts of India, including national capital New Delhi, have endured days of sweltering heat, prompting fears of power cuts. But the highest temperatures have been recorded in Telangana and neighbouring Andhra Pradesh state. Andhra Pradesh authorities are urging labourers and others not to work long hours in the heat of the day after 246 people died from the high temperatures there in the last week. http://bit.ly/1Khj5Dr http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by Wochit using http://wochit.com
