A portion of an old and dilapidated building in Daryaganj's Kucha Chelan Gali collapsed on Sunday evening, bringing down an electricity pole and wires and blocking the narrow lane. Police said no injuries were reported because the building is currently unoccupied except for two shops on the ground floor. The collapse involved a portion of the staircase from the top floor falling onto the staircase of the first floor. Power supply to the area was disrupted. The incident occurred in a densely populated area of central Delhi.
