This is the dramatic moment a building under construction collapsed during heavy rain in India, killing one worker and leaving at least 16 others trapped inside the rubble.

CCTV from a neighbouring office shows how the structure gave way during the downpour in Horamavu Agara near Hennur in Banglore in the south of the country.

Teams from the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) arrived at the scene where they began pulling those trapped under the debris to safety.

Officials said one man was pronounced dead at the scene. Others were taken to hospital for treatment.

The city has been grappling with relentless rainfall for three days, leading to widespread flooding and disruption.
