According to the repoert, Tilting led to panic among its residents, with one person even jumping off the third floor. After running out of the building, residents were forced to spend the night out in the open.

A few residents suffered injuries during the mishap, including Sadiq ur Rahman, who fell off the third floor and suffered serious back injuries and a fractured leg.

More than 50 residents were evacuated by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) on Tuesday night. The demolition work was completed by Wednesday evening.

The Town Planning department suspects that digging in a neighbouring plot destabilised the foundation of Happy Residency.

Sreenu, the builder working on the adjacent plot, has reportedly offered compensation to the tenants for their losses. A police case has been filed against him, with charges including negligence endangering personal safety (Section 125) and mischief (Section 324).
