比哈尔邦和北方邦遭雷暴袭击，一天内107人被劈死

PATNA/LUCKNOW: A fusillade of lightning strikes spread across 31 districts of two states killed 107 people on Thursday — 83 in Bihar and 24 in UP — amid warnings from meteorologists for people in both states to stay indoors as more thunderstorms are on the radar over the next 72 hours.

巴特那/勒克瑙：周四，印度两个邦下属的31个区接连遭到雷击，造成107人死亡，比哈尔邦83人，北方邦24人。尽管气象学家已经发出警告称，由于未来72小时将有更多雷暴，告诫这两个邦的民众要待在室内。

In Bihar, a total of 23 districts reported fatalities, with Gopalganj in the northern part of the state accounting for the highest number of 13 deaths, followed by Madhubani with eight. Siwan and Bhagalpur had six deaths each while East Champaran, Darbhanga, Bhagalpur and Banka reported five each.

Many victims were at work in their fields

其中许多罹难者当时是在田里干农活。

Bihar’s Nawada, Khagaria, Aurangabad, West Champaran, Kishanganj, Jehanabad, Buxar, Kaimur, Jamui, Purnia, Supaul, Samastipur, Sheohar, Saran, Sitamarhi and Madhepura had fewer deaths.

比哈尔邦的纳瓦达、哈加里亚、奥兰加巴德、西尚帕兰、基桑甘杰、杰哈纳巴德、布哈尔、凯穆尔、杰米、普尔尼亚、苏保尔、萨马斯蒂普尔、舍哈尔、萨拉、西塔玛希和马德普拉的死亡人数较少。

Many of the victims in Gopalganj and some other districts were at work in their fields when they were struck by lightning, a perennial threat during the monsoon months. The UP relief commissioner’s office said 24 people were injured in the state.

遭到雷击时，戈巴尔甘尼和其他一些地区的罹难者很多都正田里劳作。在季风季节，雷击是常年存在的威胁。北方邦救济专员办公室表示，该邦有24人受伤。

Bihar CM Nitish Kumar and his UP counterpart Yogi Adityanath announced ex gratia of Rs 4 lakh each to the families of those killed. Nitish appealed to people to take all necessary precautions as more turbulent weather had been forecast for the next two days. “Follow all advisories and stay indoors and safe during bad weather,” he said.

比哈尔邦首席部长尼蒂什·库马尔和北方邦首席部长约吉·阿迪亚纳特宣布向遇难者家属每人提供4万卢比的抚恤金。尼蒂什呼吁人们采取一切必要的预防措施，预报称未来两天会出现更恶劣的天气。他说:“恶劣天气期间，要听从警告，呆在室内，保证安全。”
