NEW DELHI, India, March 14 (Xinhua) — At least four people, including two children, were killed and five others injured in a fire that broke out in a residential building in Shahdara area of New Delhi early Monday morning, according to the Hindustan Times.
The blaze, which started around 5:20 a.m. local time, quickly engulfed the building, posing a significant challenge to the rescue operations. Firefighters from multiple stations were dispatched to the scene, and after several hours of effort, managed to bring the fire under control and begin the clean-up operation.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, but initial reports suggest it may have been sparked by a short circuit. The local police and fire departments are working to determine the exact cause of the blaze.
The incident has once again highlighted the issue of living safety in India, where the rapid pace of urbanization has outstripped the development of safety infrastructure and fire prevention measures, leading to frequent fire accidents.
The Delhi government has pledged to conduct safety inspections of all residential buildings in the city and to take steps to strengthen fire safety education to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
