Rishabh Pal, a 21-year-old civil services aspirant, recalls the tragic flooding at a Delhi coaching centre that claimed the lives of students Tanya Soni, Shreya Yadav, and Nevin Dalvin. Despite valiant efforts, many couldn't escape the basement as water inundated the facility.

According to Rishabh, the situation rapidly deteriorated, trapping him and his classmates. Tanya's attempt to form a human chain failed due to the water's intense flow. Rishabh and others were eventually rescued with ropes, but not before suffering injuries and witnessing the loss of friends.

Pal criticized the delay in administrative response and questioned the legality of the basement's construction. He calls for justice for the victims while hoping that fellow students, who paid significant fees for their education, remain unaffected.
