Three vehicles were damaged when a compound wall collapsed in Pimpri Chinchwad of Maharashtra's Pune district, on Wednesday morning following heavy rainfall.

"As a result of the continuous rain in Haveri district, it was very sad to hear the news that three people, including two children, died after a house wall collapsed in Madapura village of Savanur taluk of Shigaon Assembly Constituency," Bommai said in a post on 'X' on Friday.
Although no one was hurt, the collapse caused rainwater to flood the house, trapping the family inside. A team from the State Disaster Relief Force (SDRF) was called in to rescue the family and shift them to a safe location.
Teams of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA)and civic agencies also carried out search opeation to ensure there were no more people trapped under the rubble, officials said.
The body of one of the three labourers who fell into a pit of an under-construction building in Vasant Vihar in the wall collapse incident yesterday, was taken out by the NDRF team on Saturday.
