Close shave for Jalandhar MC staff as down ceiling gives way

MC employees had a close shave when the down ceiling of the Tehbazari wing fell on Monday afternoon. They were having a lunch in the room that time. The incident took everyone by surprise.

There were eight employees in the department at that time. As per information, its maintenance was done a year ago and within a year, the incident happened.

Ashwini Gill, Superintendent of the Tehbazari wing, said the work to repair the down ceiling had started. “We have now shifted to another room. Thankfully, no one was hurt and there is no loss as well. The moment the ceiling fell, all of us hurriedly came out,” he said.
