New Delhi: At least four people died and several others are feared trapped after a four-storey building collapsed in Mustafabad area in northeast Delhi in the wee hours of Saturday.

According to reports quoting police, at least 14 people have been rescued so far. The rescued persons had been shifted to the GTB Hospital.

Rescue teams from the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), firefighters, and Delhi Police are carrying out the rescue operation. Cops have launched an investigation to ascertain the cause behind the building’s collapse.
