Three people were killed and several were feared trapped after a two-storeyed house collapsed in Delhi’s Jahangirpuri industrial area on Friday. The incident, which occurred around 12.50 pm, prompted a large-scale rescue operation by the Delhi Fire Services.
Five fire tenders were dispatched to the site immediately after the Fire Department received a distress call. “Four people, including a woman, have been rescued so far,” a DFS official confirmed. The rescue teams, assisted by bulldozers, were working to clear the debris amid concerns that more individuals might be trapped under the rubble. TNS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
