Necessary arrangements were not made for fire prevention
Indore fire : The Commissioner of Police said that there were separate flats on all three floors of the building, in which people lived on rent. According to eyewitnesses, the building did not have the necessary fire protection arrangements. When asked about this, the Commissioner of Police said that an FIR will be registered against the owner of the building under section 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). He said the main door of the lower floor of the building and the stairs leading to the upper floors were engulfed in raging flames and smoke, while the door leading to the terrace from the third floor had burned extremely hot. Due to this, most of the people were trapped in the building during the incident. However, some people saved their lives by coming to the balcony of their flat.
