Rourkela: Two minor girls died while their mother sustained critical injuries after a wall of their house collapsed on them at Malgodown area under Uditnagar police limits in Sundargarh district late on Friday.
The deceased were identified as Sujata (7) and Soumnya (5).

The woman was later taken to a nearby hospital for treatment.
