Doctors say 65 people have been killed after an explosion caused a train to crash in eastern India.

It’s reported an explosion on the track hit a passenger train travelling between Mumbai and Kolkata, sending it straight into the path of a goods train travelling the other way.

It’s thought the blast was an act of sabotage.

Maoist rebels are being blamed for the incident.

“This has been done by the Maoists” Bhupinder Singh, police chief of West Bengal state, told reporters.
