At least 10 people have been killed in a building collapse in the southern Indian city of Secunderabad, local police report.

At least 15 more people were injured when the two-storey City Light hotel came down.

Police believe there are people trapped under the debris at the hotel, located near Hyderabad.

About 25 people were working at the hotel when one of its kitchen walls collapsed, burying some of the employees, a senior police official told the AFP news agency.

Last month, nine people were killed in two separate building collapses in Mumbai.

In April, 74 people were killed in another building collapse on the outskirts of Mumbai.
