A portion of a flyover being built by a state-run corporation collapsed on a busy road in Varanasi today, killing at least 18 people as it crushed a mini bus, cars and two-wheelers.
Officials feared that the toll may rise.
Hours later, people were still believed buried under the rubble of the flyover with several cranes being deployed to lift the concrete girder that crashed around 4 pm on the road that leads to the Varanasi-Allahabad highway.
Reports said at least 20 people were injured in the accident barely 100 metres from the Varanasi Cantonment railway station.
