In a tragic incident in Delhi's Najafgarh, a 28-year-old woman and her three children lost their lives when their house collapsed due to heavy rains. Severe weather conditions, including strong winds, uprooted a tree that fell onto their house, leading to the collapse.

The woman, Jyoti, and her children—Aryan (7), Rishabh (5), and Priyansh (7 months)—were declared dead after being extricated from the debris. Her husband, Ajay, sustained minor injuries. In another incident in Dwarka's Chhawla area, a wall collapse caused minor injuries to a man and his two sons.

According to the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Dwarka), emergency services were quickly deployed to handle the aftermath of the collapse, which was reported through multiple PCR calls. The widespread rain and winds also resulted in severe disruptions across the capital, affecting transportation and flight operations.
