Multi-Storey Building Collapses in Delhi's Seemapuri, Several Dead and Injured
A four- to five-storey residential building collapsed in Delhi's Seemapuri area on October 7, 2026, killing at least three people, including a pregnant woman and two children, and injuring eight others. Rescue operations involving multiple agencies, including Delhi Fire Services and the National Disaster Response Force, are ongoing. Locals and officials suspect cracks caused by recent earthquake tremors may have contributed. The collapse also damaged adjoining structures, and traffic disruptions have been reported. The incident follows a similar deadly collapse in Satya Niketan last month.
