The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is yet to confirm the number of the injured and total damages.
"As per initial information, it appears that a steel girder which was erected for building the foot-over bridge at Mohan Nagar collapsed. Few injuries have been reported. However, we are verifying more details," a DMRC official said.
"The Chief Project Manager and General Manager/Safety of DMRC have reached the site to take stock of the situation," he added.
The bridge was being built for the upcoming Dilshad Garden-New Bus Adda section of the network.
The 9.41-km metro extension is proposed to have eight stations in Ghaziabad - Shaheed Nagar, Raj Bagh, Rajendra Nagar, Shyam Park, Mohan Nagar, Arthala, river Hindon and the New Bus stand.
