This is not the first time that such an incident has taken place. Earlier in Gurgaon, at least two people died and several were feared trapped after the roof of an apartment in Haryana’s Gurugram collapsed. The incident occurred on the sixth floor of the D Block of the Chintels Paradiso housing complex in Gurugram’s Sector 109. The drawing room floor collapsed while a room on the floor was being renovated. All of the building’s roofs and floors, from the sixth to the ground floor, collapsed at the same time, and rescue operations are currently on.

Such incidents are not just confined to India. Earlier in North Carolina, a house located on a beach in North Carolina’s Outer Banks collapsed and was swept away by sea waves due to rising water levels and beach erosion.

The collapse was also captured in a video that was shared by Cape Hatteras National Seashore, National Park Service on its official Twitter handle. Sharing the location of the house, the department wrote that it was the second house that collapsed that day. Fortunately, both houses were unoccupied at the time of the incident.
