Portion of false ceiling comes down at West Bengal's Burdwan

A portion of false ceiling broke off and fell at the Burdwan Station portico on Sunday, but no one was injured in the incident, a railway official said. The place was largely empty when the chunk of the ceiling came down around noon, he said.

On January 4 this year, a portion of the century-old station building's portico had collapsed during repair work, injuring two persons. An important station on the Howrah-Delhi route, Burdwan is situated about 100 kms from Kolkata.
