A paying guest building collapse near Delhi's Satya Niketan area killed at least six people, prompting hundreds of students to flee. Rescue efforts continued and the Delhi government ordered a magisterial probe.

On the night of September 6, hundreds of students streamed out of the congested lanes of Satya Niketan in Delhi, some still in their sleep clothes, after a nearby paying guest (PG) building collapsed. The death toll from the collapse rose to six, with rescue operations still underway. Delhi government ordered a magisterial probe into the incident.
Many students who had been living in the area said they were too frightened to remain. Anushriti, a student from Kanpur who had lived in Satya Niketan for nearly a year, left for a friend's home in Moti Bagh with little more than her phone. She described herself as stranded, still in the same night dress for 24 hours and unable to return home.
