Immediately after the building collapse, a cloud of dust smoke engulfs the area.
In February 2018, an under-construction building collapsed in Jajmau area of Kanpur leading to the death of at least eight persons and several injured. Several people were trapped in the building for a long time.
Kanpur is also reeling under heavy rainfalls. The water level of River Ganga also rose to dangerous situations.
Due to the flood-like situation, local administration evacuated the low-lying villages near Ganges Barrage. The residents have been shifted to different places.
