A 5-storey commercial building collapsed here at Kashmir road, injuring one person while casualties were also feared, rescue officials said on Tuesday.
According to officials, the state of ill-fated building was fragile and rescue officials had warned inhabitants to evacuate the building as ongoing heavy rains could bring it down.
Officials said most of the people had evacuated the building, but there were still some people who ignored the warning.
Rescue teams rushed to the site soon after the incident occurred and started rescue operation.
At least one man was pulled out from the debris and shifted to hospital. However, officials expressed fear that there could be more people buried under the rubble which could result in more casualties.
