Delhi: The body of one of the three labourers who fell into a pit of an under-construction building in Vasant Vihar in the wall collapse incident yesterday, was taken out by the NDRF team on Saturday. The search and rescue operation for the other two labourers is still underway.
“I go there daily for a walk. At 5 am I heard loud noises coming from there. One lady was shouting that her husband was stuck in the debris. I called upon my office and then we called the police. The police came by 6:30 am. At least three people are feared trapped,” said an eyewitness.
At least three labourers were feared to be trapped after the under-construction wall collapsed in the Vasant Vihar area amid heavy rainfall in the national capital on Friday.
The collapse was worsened by the heavy rainfall, which also resulted in two trees falling into the basement pit where temporary huts for labourers were situated.
The Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) and the fire department conducted the rescue operations, and teams have been mobilized to take out any individuals trapped under the debris.
