No casualties have been reported in the incident. The Shimla municipal corporation had asked the families to vacate the property as soon as possible 15 days ago. Some families, however, has insisted on staying as they did not believe warnings about the building’s potential collapse. According to reports, the incessant heavy rains and landslides in the region had loosened the soil under the building, which was raised without a strong foundation. With inputs from PTI
