Rescue workers were searching for about 70 people feared trapped inside the five-story, 45-unit building, the Press Trust of India news agency said. No deaths were immediately reported.
About two dozen people were extracted from the wreckage and taken to a local hospital. India's National Disaster Relief Force said it dispatched three teams of rescuers with tools to pry apart the debris as well as a canine squad.
