Some survivors said the three persons had gone to collect their belongings but were trapped.Two fire service officers were injured while trying to douse the fire on Thursday. It took eight hours for the fire to be brought under control. As many as 23 fire tenders from various fire stations in the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad were pressed into service.With smoke still emanating from some parts of the building and small fires getting reignited due to inflammable material, the personnel of Disaster Response Force (DRF) and fire services were moving cautiously.The rescue teams were using drone cameras to collect the footage from different floors and accordingly plan their operation.The massive fire, which broke out on January 19 and raged for over eight hours, has weakened the structure and experts have warned that it may collapse any time.The officials of Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) have decided to demolish the structure.
