The Bihar CM has announced ex-gratia Rs 2 lakh each to the next of the kin of the deceased and compensation of Rs 50,000 to the injured.

“Ten labourers who were working underneath a structure of iron rods got trapped after the structure suddenly collapsed on them,” said Sunil Gilbile, Chief Fire Officer. The primary investigation suggests that the incident happened due to a lack of precautionary measures at the site.
