DU student's life cut short in Delhi building collapse
On the morning of Sunday, Arpit, a 19-year-old second-year B.Com student from Delhi University's Atma Ram Sanatan Dharm College, arrived in Delhi after Rakshabandhan from Madhya Pradesh. He settled into his paying guest accommodation in Satya Niketan. An hour later, the five-storey building he resided in collapsed, claiming the lives of seven individuals, including Arpit.
Twelve people were rescued from the debris, but all seven victims perished. Arpit's mother had attempted to dissuade him from travelling to Delhi, even going as far as to consider it an ominous sign when his sister sneezed at the railway station. Despite her warnings, Arpit proceeded, leaving her to grapple with the tragic loss.
