Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has ordered a probe into the incident and directed officials to provide relief to the victims. A magisterial enquiry has also been ordered by the Gautam Buddha Nagar District Magistrate who has sought a report within 15 days.
State Government spokesperson Srikant Sharma said, all aspects, including negligence of officers and violation of rules of construction, will be probed. He said, the guilty will not be spared.
