🚨 **7 PEOPLE DIED. NOW MCD WANTS ANSWERS?**
A five-storey PG collapsed in Delhi’s Satya Niketan, killing seven people. But this wasn’t the first warning from the area — a nearby building had already collapsed in 2022 after being flagged as dangerous.
MCD says the latest building had **no sanctioned plan**, while unauthorised construction was allegedly underway. Residents had also reported cracks and seepage.
Officials are now suspended. Nearby buildings are being checked.
But the bigger question is: **Why does action come after the collapse, instead of before it?**
👉 **Swipe to see the warnings that were already there.**
