The incident trapped a worker who was working inside, but was rescued by the fire services and was taken to the nearby JJ hospital later.

Nand Vilas is a three-storeyed building at Maulana Shaukat Ali road and was in an old and dilapidated condition. The incident took place at 4.00 am, when a part of the ceiling fell down.

Wherever required, ward officials have been asked to visit areas in their jurisdiction to monitor the situation on the ground.''
