PUNE: Three labourers were killed and seven others suffered injuries after a makeshift water tank collapsed at a labour camp in the Bhosari area of Pimpri Chinchwad township in Pune district on Thursday.
According to the police, the incident took place when some labourers were taking a bath under the water tank.
"It seems a wall of the water tank exploded due to the water pressure, leading to the collapse of the tank. The labourers who were below the water tank got trapped under the debris," Additional Commissioner of Police, Pimpri Chinchwad Vasant Pardeshi said.
