Recuperating from injuries on her left eye and right knee at the civic-run Shatabdi hospital on Thursday, Rizwana Sarfaraz kept saying she regretted not being able to save her nine-year-old son, Sahil. The mother-son duo was inside their third-floor house when people started shouting at them to get out as a part of their building crumbled. 

I had finished preparing dinner when I heard people shouting and felt the building tremble. I called out to Sahil to quickly run out of the house when suddenly, the building collapsed,” said Rizwana, 33.
