Patna Houses Cave-in: Basement Collapses, Investigation Underway
On Sunday morning, parts of the basements of three houses in Patna collapsed.
People had to leave their homes.
Officials from the National and State Disaster Response Forces came to help.
The collapse might be because of digging work next door, which may not have been approved.

Basement portions of three houses in Patna caved in on Sunday.
