A fire broke out in a multi‑storey guest house and restaurant in Delhi’s Malviya Nagar, killing at least 21 people and injuring more than 40. Rescue teams used mattresses from a local shop to help occupants escape, while authorities are investigating the cause and the building’s safety permits. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced financial compensation for those affected.
Authorities are providing all possible assistance to those affected.
Through the co-ordinated efforts of police, fire services, and other emergency responders, more than 40 persons have been rescued and shifted to nearby hospitals for medical treatment.
It is with deep sadness that 21 people have been declared dead in this tragic incident.
There was reportedly a restaurant operating on the ground floor of the building ... it is most likely that the fire was connected to that restaurant.
People spread mattresses, and a woman from the third floor jumped on it with a little kid.
There is a mattress shop here ... We took the mattresses from there and laid them on the road to help those who were jumping out of the building.
