9 dead, 3 injured after fire breaks out at cloth godown in Delhi’s Kirari

Nine people died and three others were injured in a fire that broke out in a three-storey building in outer Delhi’s Kirari. The Delhi Fire Services said that seven fire tenders were sent to the spot after they received information about the fire at 12.30 am.
The fire services officers also said that the blaze started on the ground floor which was used as a godown to store clothes. Police said they are verifying if the ground floor was being used as a small-scale factory.
This is the second major fire incident in the last two weeks. On December 8, a fire at a building in North Delhi’s Anaj Mandi killed 43 people.
In the latest case, the fire department said they reached the spot and found charred bodies of three people. There were nine others who had sustained burn injuries or fallen unconscious after fire spread to the upper floors of the building. They were all rushed to the Sanjay Gandhi hospital.
The fire services confirmed that nine people have died while others are in critical condition in the hospital. The police has identified eight of the deceased. They are: Ram Chandra Jha, Sundari Devi, Sandhu Jha, Uday Chaudhary, Muskan, Anjali, Adarsh, Tulsi while one woman remains unidentified.
Police suspect the fire may have started from the ground floor, and an explosion in an LPG cylinder escalated it leading to the several deaths. “There was only one staircase. The building did not have a fire safety clearance. The LPG cylinder was on the stairs of the second floor. It exploded causing damage to the building wall too,” a fire department official said.
It was finally brought under control at 3:50 am.

Delhi, India – Chaos ensues as the Ashram Flyover becomes a traffic nightmare for commuters in the city. But fear not, as a group of marshals has been deployed to restore order and bring some sense to the madness.
The Ashram Flyover, a major artery in the bustling metropolis of Delhi, has been a headache for commuters for quite some time now. The flyover, which connects the city’s south and central areas, sees heavy traffic congestion during peak hours, causing long delays and frayed nerves.
But things have taken a spicy turn as marshals have been brought in to keep things under control. These marshals, donning bright green jackets, have been tasked with managing the traffic flow, ensuring that vehicles move smoothly and without incident.
The marshals have their work cut out for them, as the chaos on the flyover seems to have no end in sight. The heavy traffic, coupled with the city’s notorious lack of lane discipline, has resulted in a free-for-all on the flyover, with vehicles jostling for space and tempers flaring.
But the marshals are undeterred. Armed with whistles and hand signals, they are determined to bring some order to the chaos. And their efforts seem to be paying off, as traffic has started moving more smoothly, and the honking and shouting have reduced considerably.
