A canopy at Gujarat's Rajkot Airport collapsed amid heavy rainfall on Saturday, according to a report by new agency PTI. The incident occurred at the passenger pickup and drop area outside the Rajkot airport terminal.

This incident comes shortly after a tragic event at New Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport. Early Friday morning, amid heavy rains, a roof collapse at Terminal 1 resulted in the death of one person.

In response to the fatal accident the government has ordered a detailed investigation and an inspection of the structural integrity of all airports.
