Two women buried as dilapidated house collapses in Jaipur; elderly lady dies on spot

Jaipur, Sep 18 || A dilapidated house in Jaipur's old city collapsed early on Thursday morning, burying two women under the rubble. One of the women, Dhannibai (60), tragically died at the scene. The second woman, Sunita (35), suffered a leg fracture and facial injuries. The incident occurred at 7 A.M. in the Subhash Chowk Police Station area and help arrived two hours late.

According to family members, the rescue team, despite being informed of the mishap immediately after the collapse, only arrived at around 9 A.M., two hours after the accident.

Locals called Tarun Mahawar, a relative of the injured women, to inform him about the incident.

Fortunately, the two children living in the house were outside playing at the time of the collapse and were unharmed.

The area is a hub of unsafe, dilapidated buildings. A few days ago, a mansion in Subhash Chowk collapsed, resulting in the deaths of a father and daughter.
