2 minors among 7 killed in Mumbai fire
Seven people, including two minors, were killed and 62 injured in a fire at a seven-storey building in Mumbai. The fire was caused by a short-circuit and spread due to a pile of old clothes. The building did not have functional fire-fighting systems or lifts. The chief minister announced compensation for the victims’ families, and the prime minister declared relief funds. A fire audit will be conducted on all similar buildings, and a committee will be formed to prevent future disasters.
