Two painters, employed to paint a house, fell to their death from the third floor of a building in east Delhi's Madhu Vihar area.
One has been identified as Kamlesh, while police are trying to ascertain the identity of the other.
The two were hired by a couple residing on the third floor of Trilok Apartments to paint their house ahead of Diwali, police said.
The painters made a makeshift swing using a rope and one of them was sitting on it, while other workers were holding it. The one who was sitting on the swing lost his balance and fell down along with another worker, who tried to save him, police said.
They were rushed to a hospital, where doctors declared them brought dead.
A case has been registered against the owners of the apartment.
