The building, known as \"Hostel Daze\", was located in the densely populated Satya Niketan neighborhood, near a Delhi University campus. According to the Associated Press, at least one person was killed and dozens were trapped under the debris.\n\nRescue efforts were underway, with police, firefighters, and disaster response teams working together to search for survivors. Fire officer Abhilash Malik stated that around 30 to 40 people were believed to be trapped. Some trapped individuals made phone calls for help, and rescuers were in contact with them. At least two people were hospitalized in critical condition. The cause of the collapse was not immediately known.\n\nAccording to the BBC News, six people were rescued, and an adjacent building was evacuated as a precautionary measure. Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta stated that every effort was being made to safely rescue those trapped. The building was around 40 or 50 years old, according to Delhi Police.
