A deeply tragic accident occurred on Monday night in Barahpan village of Madhya Pradesh's Singrauli district. Three people lost their lives due to the sudden collapse of a kucha house. In this mishap, three people, including a small one-year-old girl, were buried under the debris.

According to reports from Amer Ujla, the accident took place in Barahpan village at approximately 8:30 pm on Monday.

Following the accident, a scene of chaos and mourning was witnessed at the site.

Upon receiving information about the incident, local police and villagers immediately reached the spot to provide assistance. Rescue operations were undertaken on a war footing to pull out the people trapped in the debris. A JCB machine was used in these rescue efforts to quickly remove the rubble and bring out those trapped.
