On Tuesday, a multi-story structure in Lucknow’s Wazir Hassan neighborhood collapsed, possibly as a result of an earthquake that struck Nepal and affected sections of northern India and Lucknow. Eleven people had to be rescued from the rubble.
At first glance, it seems like a natural calamity. The Gomri river is nearby, and it’s possible that the adjacent 5.8-magnitude earthquake and the building’s location in a riverine region contributed to the disaster. Undoubtedly, there was construction work being done within the structure, but it was very light work and no construction equipment was present, according to Uttar Pradesh’s director general of police (DGP), DS Chauhan.
Therefore, the cause could not have been the construction work. Still, everything needs to be looked into. A structural expert will do the research. Only after the investigations could anything definitively be said. We anticipate that the rescue efforts will continue for at least the ensuing 18 hours, he continued.Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, is aware of the building collapse in the state capital. He quickly gave the authorities the go-ahead to ensure that the injured were taken to the hospital and given the necessary care. Several hospitals were also advised to remain on alert by him.
When the deputy chief minister, Brajesh Pathak, arrived at the scene, he said that efforts were being made to guarantee that everyone trapped beneath the debris was saved.
