Incessant rains for the last two days caused the slab of a house in Vaishali Nagar to break and fall. Unfortunately the slab fell on the electric wires situated very close to the house on July 22, 2014 at around 2:30 pm.

According to sources, the triangular slab constructed over the roof of house on Plot No 117 owned by Charanjeet Singh, in Vaishali Nagar in Indora area suddenly broke and fell down. Unfortunately the broken slab fell on the electric wires passing from close to his house and was dangling precariously.

Immediately the fire department was called and the electric supply on those lines, were disconnected.

This incessant rains cause a series of damage to life and property every-year. Last year, many old and massive trees fell down, many kucha shelters fell down. Cases of children falling into drain holes and getting washed away also occurred last year.
However, this is the first incident of breaking of this year due to rains.
