Following the roof collapse incident at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport, Larsen & Toubro (L&T) has issued a clarification regarding its involvement in the construction project. An investigation has been initiated to determine the causes behind the structural failure, which occurred in a newly constructed area of the airport.

L&T, the construction firm responsible for the project, clarified its stance amidst concerns over structural integrity and safety protocols. The incident has prompted authorities to conduct a thorough probe to ascertain any lapses in construction standards or adherence to safety measures during the project's execution.

The roof collapse occurred in a non-operational area of Terminal 3, raising questions about the construction quality and oversight mechanisms implemented during the building phase. Fortunately, there were no casualties reported, but the incident has highlighted the importance of stringent safety protocols in infrastructure projects of such scale.

Authorities have assured that the investigation will assess all aspects, including design specifications, material quality, and construction methodologies employed by L&T. This scrutiny aims to prevent similar incidents in the future and ensure the safety of passengers, staff, and visitors at one of India's busiest airports.

L&T's issuance of clarification and the commencement of the investigation underscore the seriousness with which the authorities are addressing the Delhi airport roof collapse. It also reflects a commitment to transparency and accountability in infrastructure development projects across the country.
