Can older apartment structures collapse like this? Or is it poor construction
Saw this video and I've been wondering why it happened. I've not seen an apartment balcony collapse like this just cause its old

If this was in some other country, this hill could have been protected and turned into a public park or recreational space.
Here, we remove the hill itself and build high rises. And once thousands of people start living and working here, there’s barely any public open space left for them.
Why can’t we plan development around natural spaces like these instead of removing them completely?
Saw this video floating online. The situation was same in our case too, recently my brother registered his new home in Bangalore. And there was a list of extra charges he had to pay at different points.
It's unfortunate that the system is like this
I was inspecting my flat and noticed that quite a few floor tiles make a hollow sound when I tap on them.
It's not just one or two tiles, there are quite a few across the flat.
This home is 6 years old. Is this a serious issue or something that's common in older flats? Could these tiles eventually loosen or crack?
Reminds me of my own flat search experience. Tried all the online portals and still couldn't find anything useful. Finally had to go through a broker to get a place.
This is a funny reel. Also a sad reality.
I've been seeing Kollur being heavily marketed by almost every builder lately.
There are so many new projects, and everyone seems to have a long list of reasons why the area is going to boom.
I'm trying to understand how much of it is actually backed by solid fundamentals and how much is just marketing.
Does Kollur genuinely have strong long-term potential, or is the hype ahead of reality?
Also, for someone investing today, is there still meaningful appreciation left, or have builders already priced in most of the future growth?
Would love to hear from people who know the area well or have been tracking it for a while.
Happened at an under-construction project in noida - ATS picturesque repreive.
The shuttering platform they were standing on collapsed and their safety belts failed.
Apartments worth crores and the workers who build them had to fall from the 37th floor. Human life has zero value in this country
This is an incident from a few days back.
It's pure luck that nothing bad happened.
There are many strays in my society as well. Some feed them regularly and don't allow them to be moved anywhere.
Me personally is scared of these dogs. Cause I've been chased one time, and it was traumatic. Dogs don't behave the same with everyone.
But these animal lovers can't ever understand this.. is there any way to get them out?
I’m based out of Bangalore and was almost certain about buying a home here.
My parents would stay there, and I’d continue working in Bangalore.
But homes here are now very much expensive, living costs keep going up, traffic is getting worse, and I’m not even sure if my work will always be based here.
So I started exploring other options and came across this shift towards Mysore. It feels like a better fit in many ways. Parents can stay there, homes are more affordable, and daily expenses are lower. I can rent wherever work takes me, or even move there if remote work works out.
For anyone who has actually moved to Mysore recently, how has it been?
Does life feel better there?
And is anyone else here also considering buying in Mysore?
