He told ANI, “The incident took place at around 4 p.m. My kids were sleeping downstairs while I and my wife were working upstairs. My kids have been badly injured. We have admitted them to a nearby hospital”.

According to an eyewitness, the building was in a dilapidated condition and hence the incident took place.
