Delhi Airport Roof Collapse - PM inaugurated different building
The delhi airport's Terminal 1 roof fell on friday, killing one person and wounding four others, according to Civil Aviation minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu. The roof was built between 2008 and 2009. Naidu made his statement in response to the Congress's accusation that the ceiling that fell was a component of indira gandhi International Airport's new Terminal 1, which prime minister narendra modi had opened in march of this year.
As Naidu assessed the situation at the delhi airport, he remarked, "I want to clarify that the building inaugurated by PM narendra modi is on the other side and the building that collapsed here is an old building and was opened in 2009."
According to government sources, GMR Airports Limited hired outside contractors to build the damaged roof.
The Union minister promised compensation of Rs 3 lakh for wounded parties and Rs 20 lakh for deceased, along with the announcement of a statewide audit.
