Thiruvananthapuram | The roof of a building inside the Government School campus at Attakulangara collapsed on Monday evening, but no one was injured as the premises were empty after classes had ended, police said.

The incident occurred at around 5.30 pm when the tiled-roof structure housing the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) office gave way.

“There were no casualties as nobody was inside the building at the time of the incident,” a police officer said.

The office, located within the school compound, is used by around 30 employees.

Officials said all staff had left for the day when the roof collapsed.

Authorities are expected to assess the damage and examine the cause of the collapse.
