Tragic collapse of cellar at Hyderabad hotel construction site kills three workers, prompts investigation into cause of the accident

The deceased were identified as migrant workers from Bihar who were working at the site. Authorities are investigating the cause of the collapse, with initial reports suggesting that lack of reinforcement for the construction activities may have contributed to the disaster.
