Police said the three children were siblings and had come with their mother Neetu to the village to visit relatives.

“After the incident, neighbours gathered and dug through the rubble to rescue the four trapped underneath. They were rushed to the nearby ESI hospital and from there, were referred to a private hospital in Sector 27. But Himanshu did not survive,” a senior officer said.

Police said the other three are critically injured and are presently in the ICU. Deputy SP Anup Singh said no case has been lodged in the matter as yet.
