In a shocking incident, a five-storey house in Himachal Pradesh’s capital Shimla crashed down like a pack of cards crumbling to a pile of debris as heavy rainfall triggered deluge in the hill-state. The mishap took place in the Bhattakufar area of Shimla on Monday morning.
The terrifying moment was caught on camera, showing the building named Raj Niwas getting destroyed in seconds. Fortunately, no casualties were reported, as the residents had evacuated the premises the previous night following concerns of structural instability due to persistent rainfall and nearby landslides.
The owner of the house, Anjana Verma, confirmed that the building had been vacated in time. The structure was reportedly under threat due to ongoing four-lane construction work nearby and had been lying empty for some time. Local residents informed the administration after the collapse, and efforts to clear the debris are currently underway.
