Four-storey building collapses in Thane`s Mumbra, two feared trapped
Baku, September 22 (AZERTAC). A four-storey building collapsed in Thane`s Mumbra district this morning. According to a CNN IBN report, two people are feared trapped and rescue operations are underway. The building is situated just next to the Mumbra railway station. According to the Thane Municipal Commissioner, the building is about eight to twelve years old, which is why the residents had already been given a notice to vacate the building. Four-storey building collapses in Thane`s Mumbra. CNN-IBN Thane Disaster Control officials are currently on their way. No casualties have been reported so far. However, residents of the building told CNN IBN that two to three people may be trapped in the building. Earlier in April this year, a building had collapsed in the same area and claimed as many as 74 lives and left over 60 injured. Such accidents highlight the shoddy construction standards in the country, where huge demand for housing and endemic corruption often results in illegal buildings and a lack of safety inspections.
