In Delhi Mundka fire, 2 held; building didn’t have fire clearance, owner on run

A blaze engulfed a three-story building in West Delhi’s Mundka, killing at least 27 people and critically injuring several others in one of the city’s worst fires in recent memory. The office space-filled building is close to the Mundka metro station. In a massive rescue operation, more than 50 people were rescued; at least 12 people were injured. The death toll in the tragedy is expected to rise. According to fire chief Atul Garg, the structure lacked a fire clearance certificate or NOC. The proprietor has fled.

1. Firefighting and rescue efforts began immediately after the fire was reported on Friday evening. Officials said the fire started on the first floor of the building, which housed the office of a company that makes CCTV cameras and Wi-Fi routers. Harish and Varun Goel, the firm’s owners, were arrested late last night.

2 “The structure lacked a fire NOC (no-objection certificate). Manish Lakra, who lived on the top floor, was identified as the building’s owner. Lakra is currently missing; teams are on the lookout for him, and he is expected to be apprehended soon “According to news agency ANI, DCP (deputy commissioner of police) Sameer Sharma (outer district) said.

3. The Mundka fire is one of the deadliest fires in the national capital since the Anaj Mandi tragedy in 2019, which claimed 43 lives. Some of the bodies were charred beyond recognition in Mundka, according to fire officials, as the horror and devastation unfolded.

4. The fire was reported to have started around 4:40 p.m. near Mundka metro station pillar number 544. Every day, thousands of people use the Delhi Metro to commute. A preliminary investigation revealed that the building only had one stairwell. People found it difficult to flee because of this. Several people who were on the second floor for a gathering were trapped when the fire broke out.

5. Devastating scenes of despair emerged from the tragedy site, with some people seen jumping from buildings to escape the flames. There was only one staircase, according to reports, making exiting the building difficult.

6. On Saturday morning, a team of NDRF officials was seen at the rescue site. Officials have announced that an investigation into the tragedy will be launched. “Previously, this property housed a car dealership. Several outlets have rented space in the building. The building had a licence to operate a commercial enterprise, to the best of the association’s knowledge,” Sunil Chadha, the general secretary of the Mundka industrial area society, said on Friday.

7. Video from the scene showed smoke billowing from the building’s windows and firefighters assisting those trapped on the upper floors to escape as hundreds looked on.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is quitting the Late Night programme.

According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is thinking about leaving his late-night show to devote more time to his son Billy’s continuous struggle with congenital heart problems.

This week, a number of people with knowledge of the situation disclosed that Kimmel intends to leave Jimmy Kimmel Live! after his contract expires in 2025 in order to spend more time with his wife Molly McNearney, who co-head writes the show.

Kimmel’s choice, according to Radar Online, is a result of Billy’s health issues, especially in the wake of Billy’s most recent third open-heart surgery. But now he’s a “healthy kid.”

The Late Night presenter shared the news on Instagram in late May, saying, “We went into this experience with a lot of optimism and nearly as much fear and came out with a new valve inside a happy, healthy kid.”

Sources close to Radar Online claim that the Kimmels are getting ready to step back from the spotlight. According to an informant, Jimmy and his spouse prioritise their family over notoriety. They know what to do financially, so they’re prepared to step back from the spotlight and concentrate on what matters most.

“Life is too short to waste time on a job that brings you no happiness.”

Kimmel’s spokesperson denied the findings.
Even though Kimmel’s publicist denied any talks regarding his possible resignation and called the claim “silly,” especially in light of his son’s recent surgery.

“Though they’ll likely stay busy producing and developing shows behind the scenes, their main focus will be spending precious time with their family,” an insider was quoted by Perez Hilton.

Billy’s congenital heart issue was initially made public by Kimmel in 2017, not long after Billy was born, along with the difficulties his family was facing. Billy was born with a heart condition, according to an echocardiography, a type of cardiac sonography that was performed, Kimmel disclosed on his show.

“Tetralogy of Fallot associated with pulmonary atresia.” In essence, there is a hole in the wall separating his left and right sides of the heart, and the pulmonary valve was totally obstructed.

Three days after his birth, Billy had his first successful open-heart surgery. A few months later, he had another one. Billy had his third operation last month at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. This was his most recent procedure.
