The accident occurred when an excavation pit, dug by a team of researchers, collapsed on Verma and her professor.

The condition of Professor Yama Dixit, aged 45, who was rescued, remains 'fragile'.

The incident unfolded at approximately 11 am as a joint research team from IIT-Delhi and IIT-Gandhinagar, comprising four members, was conducting paleoclimatology studies.

They were reportedly working outside the protected archaeological boundaries of Lothal, near dilapidated guesthouses.

Police have identified the unstable soil and the sudden surge of groundwater as possible causes of the collapse.
