These incidents of lightening strikes happen mostly in rural India. One of the main occupation of people in rural India is farming. It is monsoon season in India now with many regions exceeding their average rainfall halfway through. Most of the deaths occur in the field where they are busy in cultivation and other activities related to farming. The vast open areas are prone to lightening strikes. As regards to persons killed while taking selfies, it is just tragic.
