    One person was killed, and five others are missing after an under-construction building collapsed in Bengaluru’s Horamavu Agara area on Tuesday, according to police. The incident occurred in the afternoon while 20 people were inside the seven-story building.

    “Twenty people were trapped. One has died, 14 have been rescued, and five are still unaccounted for,” said D Devaraja, Deputy Commissioner of Police (East), Bengaluru, in a statement to ANI. Rescue operations are ongoing to locate the missing individuals.

    Locals reported that the collapse happened around 1:00 pm. According to eyewitnesses, the building, which was under construction, collapsed after heavy rainfall. “Seven of our workers were on site. Unfortunately, one has died, and three others were injured and taken to the hospital,” an eyewitness said.

    Another witness, Mehfoos, described the scene: “We were on a lunch break around 1:00 pm when we heard a loud noise, and the building began shaking. A worker inside the building died instantly.”

    Further updates are awaited as the rescue mission continues.

    At least 17 workers are believed to be trapped following the collapse of a building under construction in Babusapalya, Bengaluru, on Tuesday, officials have confirmed.

    The incident occurred during heavy rainfall in the city, complicating the situation. Rescue efforts are currently underway, with two emergency vans from the fire department on-site. According to a senior police officer, “17 individuals are feared trapped, and a coordinated rescue operation is in progress with support from various agencies.” Initial investigations suggest the building’s complete collapse, with people trapped under the rubble, according to fire department officials.

    Bengaluru has recently experienced record-breaking rainfall, with the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) reporting a remarkable 186.2 mm of rain at the GKVK observatory by 8:30 am on Sunday. This figure surpasses the previous highest 24-hour rainfall record of 178.9 mm, which was set on October 1, 1997. The relentless rain has disrupted daily life, especially in the northern parts of the city.

    Areas like Yelahanka and Doddabommasandra Lake have been heavily flooded, leading to severe waterlogging. In response, authorities have deployed five teams from the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) to assist with rescue and evacuation operations.
