Rescue operations are ongoing as authorities believe additional people may be trapped under the debris. Over 40 personnel from the National Disaster Response Force are on the scene assisting with the rescue efforts.
"Three deaths have been reported. We have started the investigation. We can only find out if there is a case against anyone once the reason is known.

All three are the workers of the Club," Joint Commissioner East Zone, Dharmaraj said as ANI quoted.
