Son of a cab driver, a CA aspirant: The students who died in Satya Niketan PG collapse
While rescue operations continue at the site for a second straight day on Monday, AIIMS Delhi has identified five people who lost their lives in the incident.
Rescue efforts concluded after 24 hours following the collapse of a building in Delhi's Satya Niketan, resulting in seven fatalities, according to officials. The Delhi High Court has criticized both Delhi University and the Municipal Corporation of Delhi for negligence, ordering an investigation into the safety measures that were not implemented.
The inquiry will assess the responsibility of both institutions and the municipal corporation for the tragedy. Authorities are conducting a citywide safety audit, sealing illegal buildings, and intensifying inspections of paying guest accommodations, which are believed to be in violation of safety norms.
