All 28 workers trapped under the rubble of a collapsed under-construction building at Kannauj railway station were pulled out safely after a 16-hour-long overnight operation, officials said on Sunday.
Of the rescued workers, 26 of them have been admitted to various hospitals in Kannauj, while the rest two with serious injuries shifted to the Lala Lajpat Rai (LLR) Hospital in Kanpur, they said.
The two workers admitted at the LLR Hospital are out of danger, hospital sources said.
One of them has a head injury while another sustained leg injury, as per the sources.
No fatalities have been reported, the officials said.
The shuttering of the under-construction building on the station premises had collapsed Saturday afternoon, trapping the workers.
The rescue teams, including personnel from the national and state disaster response forces and the railways, worked through the cold night to clear the debris and safely pull out the trapped workers.
