Delhi wall collapse: Amid heavy rains, they only sought shelter but lost lives; how is any structure in city be so unsafe, asks family

NEW DELHI: What began as a routine visit to a gurdwara near Humayun's Tomb turned into tragedy for 23-year-old Monushca and her mother, Meena Arora (56). Caught in the sudden rain on their way back, the two sought shelter in a nearby mosque while trying to arrange for transport home. Moments later, the roof collapsed, crushing them to death. The family learnt of the tragedy when the two failed to return home after several hours. Desperate, Monushca's brother tried calling. A police officer answered and asked the family to come to AIIMS to identify the bodies.

"I spoke to my mother that morning and knew that she was heading out with my sister. Who knew this would happen?" she said, her voice breaking. Priya explained how the family was making plans together. "We had planned to go to Vrindavan for Janmashtmi on Saturday, but just the day before, this happened. Monushca's birthday is next month. She had completed her studies and was working for a while, and my mother was also looking for a suitable match for her. It was a new chapter in our lives. She was gone too soon," she said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite?

Anything can happen, anything can fall," Priya said. The collapse also claimed the life of 36-year-old Moinuddin, a tailor and the sole breadwinner of his family. His wife, Afsan, said she now has no support to keep her household afloat. "I am managing only with the help of neighbours and the local community. I only want my children to at least be able to go back to school," she said. Police have registered a case under sections 290 (negligent conduct with respect to pulling down, repairing or constructing buildings, etc), 125 (act endangering life or personal safety of others) and 106 (death due to negligence) of BNS. Police said they were examining the structural integrity of the building, which was at least 40 years old. They said responses are being sought from authorities to ascertain under whose jurisdiction the mosque falls. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

PG life, pothole strife: Madhapur road turns obstacle course

1 2 3 Hyderabad: In the shadow of the high-rise, high-tech buildings and amidst the constant blaring of traffic in the IT corridor lies the Survey of India Colony in Madhapur. The colony primarily comprises paying guest (PG) and co-living apartments, housing over 100 employees working in various roles mostly in the IT sector. These residents, who have grown used to driving on smooth, wide roads in the IT corridor leading to their workplaces, have long suffered due to a poorly maintained road within their own colony.

Prasad Raju, who works at an IT start-up and resides in one of the PGs, said, "Authorities have been promising to repair the road for several months now, but the situation remains unchanged. This road is one of the key routes leading to the main road and is frequently used by commuters. Due to all the slush and dirt, two-wheelers have skidded and sustained damage in the past. I've started taking a longer route to the office, which, even though time-consuming, is better than having to navigate this treacherous stretch. " Rainy season a nightmare There are short sections where the road has been cemented and laid evenly. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite? Vitauthority Learn More Undo Residents claim these were constructed by individual PG owners using their own funds to ensure the safety of their tenants. "The problem worsens during the rainy season, when the road becomes waterlogged and it becomes extremely difficult to walk or travel on," said Yashwant Nadilla, an employee at LTIMindtree. Sai Krishna, the caretaker at Vaarahi PG, remarked that the condition of the colony's road is indicative of a wider issue across the city. "If you look at the main roads, they're generally in good condition. But if you head to the outskirts or into interior colonies, the roads are often in a terrible state," he said. Meanwhile, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) officials said work to lay a cement road in the colony will commence soon. "We have already sanctioned the project, once we finish laying a pipeline for the stormwater drains, we will start laying the road," said Indira Bai, the GHMC engineer from the Serilingampally zone, Chandanagar circle.

Age meets screen: At 105, Abdullah's swiping into the future

Kochi: At 105, M A Abdullah Maulavi of Odakkali, Perumbavoor, has found a new habit: scrolling on his phone for the latest news. From radio and newspapers, the touchscreen has become his primary window to the world. The centenarian is among 22 lakh Keralites who learnt to navigate the digital space under the state govt's "Digi Keralam" project. "I used to have keypad phones. With training from the panchayat, I can now access the internet on a smartphone; I watch news regularly besides videos of Quran recitals on YouTube," Abdullah said. His foray into the digital world was less a whim than a necessity. During the Covid-19 lockdowns, when newspaper distribution was disrupted, he found himself increasingly dependent on television and his family for news. His son, Faisal Ali, said that was the turning point. "Newspapers were unavailable, and with our help, he started watching news channels on our phones," he said. "Last year, when volunteers asked if he was interested in becoming digitally literate, he was keen. He didn't want to be left behind." Abdullah, a religious scholar, has been a learner throughout his life. He is fluent in Arabic, Urdu, English and Hindi, besides Malayalam. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite? Vitauthority Learn More Undo However, Jaya C R, the 'saksharatha pracharak' as well as the Digi Kerala panchayat coordinator, said teaching Abdullah was not easy. "He had a disciplined routine for decades, leaving little room for new things. Our volunteers adapted to his schedule, adjusting their visits," she said. The training lasted for two months, covering aspects of operating a smartphone, text messaging and video calling, payment of bills and other e-services of the govt. In Abdullah's Asamannoor panchayat alone, 2,592 persons were trained. "Our primary target was people aged between 16 and 40. However, we invited everyone who is interested. The idea is to ensure inclusivity in the digital age," Jaya said. Asamannoor is among panchayats that achieved 100% digi literacy. With over two million individuals trained under the initiative, chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan will declare Kerala as a fully digi-literate state on Aug 21.
