Delhi Lt Governor V K Saxena on Tuesday announced immediate action following the tragic deaths of three civil services aspirants at a coaching center's basement.

''It is a tragic incident. Whatever appropriate action needs to be taken will be taken. I do not believe in taking hasty decisions. Things are slowly coming to light. Whatever steps need to be taken will be taken,'' Saxena stated while flagging off 320 electric buses.
