Four days after a portion of an under-construction flyover collapsed in the city, killing at least 26 people, operations to clear the area and dismantle two dangerously hanging decks are still underway.

But some images which are going viral on the social media are of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) volunteers who are working in the relief operations with police, NDRF and other security personnel.

A Facebook post on RSS' official page said, "Close to 200 swayamsevaks (RSS workers) worked throughout the night in relief operations."

Here are the images:
