On the call of the priest, all the people were standing inside the building built in the crematorium ghat premises, reciting self-peace that during this time the land on one side was sunk. As a result, the wall sat down and the letter fell and no one in the room got a chance to escape.
Amid shouting, some people got buried in the rubble inside, while some ran and saved their lives. Police immediately reached the spot after getting information about the incident.
