A major accident occurred in the Karol Bagh area of ​​the capital Delhi when a house collapsed. The accident has caused 3 deaths and 14 injuries. Earlier this morning, part of a building in the area collapsed. Some people may still be trapped under the rubble.

The fire brigade rushed to the spot after the accident. The Delhi Fire Department has sent five vehicles to the accident site to assist in the search and rescue operation.

In a similar incident last month, a dilapidated building that was being demolished for reconstruction in Delhi’s Model Town collapsed during heavy rains, injuring three people.

Atisi expresses grief

Speaking about the incident, Delhi Chief Minister Aatish posted on social media, “This house collapse in the Karol Bagh area is very sad. I have ordered district officials to provide all possible help to the residents and victims there.” “If anyone is injured, treat them and discuss the accident with the company mayor. It has rained a lot this year, and I call on all Delhi people to pay attention to any construction-related accidents. If you have any questions, please inform the government and the company immediately, and the government will help you immediately.”
