The collapse of a four‑storey building in Delhi’s New Seemapuri area has claimed four lives. The incident occurred on Tuesday, and the building’s complete collapse left the site in ruins.
Eight injured residents were rescued from the wreckage and are currently receiving treatment at local hospitals. Medical teams are monitoring their condition, and no further casualties have been reported so far.
Rescue operations continue unabated, with multi‑agency teams combing the debris, while witnesses reported that adjacent demolition work could have contributed to the structural failure. Authorities have not yet confirmed the precise cause, but early observations suggest demolition activities in the vicinity may have weakened the structure.
