Death Toll In India Building Collapse Rises to 61

(CNN) -- The death toll from last week's
building collapse in southern India has risen
to 61, area administrator K. Baskaran said
Friday.
The 11-story building under construction in
Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu state,
toppled over during heavy rains June 28.
Emergency crews furiously dug through the
rubble for people thought to be missing, police
said.
At least 21 other people survived with injuries,
Baskaran said. They included two workers who
were pulled out alive on Monday, two days
after the incident, police said.
Previously, CNN reported the death toll was at
32 on Tuesday.
Also Saturday, at least 10 people were killed
when a rundown four-story building in New
Delhi collapsed.
Building collapses in India are an all-too-
common occurrence and have killed hundreds
of people over the past several years.
