A massive fire in a four-story commercial building in the Indian capital has killed at least 27 people and left several injured. The fire control room says dozens of people have been rescued from the commercial building in western New Delhi.
Dozens of people have been rescued from the building, which contains mainly shops, the control room said. The building is located in the Mundka area in western New Delhi.
The Press Trust of India news agency said 12 people suffered burns in the fire and 50 were evacuated from the building. Twenty-seven fire engines doused the flames after battling for more than five hours. A search operation continued to look for anyone trapped in the rubble, the fire control room said.“Distressed by the tragic fire accident at a building near Mundka Metro Station in Delhi. My condolences to the bereaved families. I wish for the speedy recovery of the injured,” India’s President Ram Nath Kovind tweeted.
Atul Garg, director of Delhi Fire Services, said the building had no clearance from the fire department and it was not equipped with fire safety equipment like extinguishers.
