2 Dead, Many Feared Trapped As 3-Storey Building Collapses In Delhi's Chawri Bazaar

A three-story building collapsed in Old Delhi's Chawri Bazaar on Thursday morning, resulting in the death of two individuals and injury to a third. The collapse occurred in Gali Sitara, close to the Chawri Bazaar Metro station. Initial reports came around 10 a.m. local time, and six fire units were dispatched to the scene. The accident took place in a crowded wholesale market during the festive shopping rush.
