Last Monday, a two-storey building in Secunderabad, the twin city of Hyderabad, housing a hotel and a local eatery collapsed suddenly. The collapsed building trapped
hotel workers and local wage labourers eating at the restaurant on the ground floor. Seventeen people were killed with another twenty taken to hospital with serious injuries. This is not the first time that a
building has collapsed suddenly in India and highlights the
hazardous conditions that many workers live and work in.
