He stated, "We received a call at 6:08 PM. We were informed of a wall collapse, and upon reaching there, we found that a pile of soil had fallen in the basement. There were 20 labourers working there. Five people were buried under the pile of soil. We have taken two people to the Trauma Centre, and 3 people to Shukmani hospital."

Meanwhile, two women were rescued after being buried under rubble following a wall collapse in a house in Jaipur on Thursday. The incident occurred at 7 am in the Subhash Chowk area on Amer Road, when the wall of a dilapidated house collapsed, trapping the women beneath the debris. Upon receiving the information, police, civil defence, and other rescue teams promptly arrived at the scene. Eventually, both women were taken out of the debris and taken to the hospital. One of the injured women is currently receiving treatment at SMS Hospital. At the time of the incident, two children were also present in the house, but they managed to escape unharmed. (ANI)
