Varanasi, May 15 (IBNS): At least 12 people died and many are feared trapped as an under construction flyover collapsed in Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi city on Tuesday.

According to media reports, two pillars of the under construction flyover collapsed in Varanasi's Cantt area.

As a result of the accident, a huge slab of concrete of the flyover came down, crushing cars and a local bus under it.

Many of those trapped are believed to be labourers who were working on the flyover.

The Centre has deployed five teams of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) to carry out the rescue operations.

Meanwhile Prime Minister Narendra Modi has condoled the incident and informed that the Uttar Pradesh government is monitoring the situation closely.
