The housing and urban affairs minister said rampant construction and flouting of fire and safety norms was turning Delhi into tinderbox. He tweeted:

A massive fire swept through a plush rooftop pub in downtown Mumbai during a birthday bash before swiftly raging through the building, leaving 14 people dead and 21 injured. Among those killed was Khushbu Bansali, the woman who was celebrating her 29th birthday at 1Above pub in upscale Parel’s Kamala Mill compound, and several of her friends. While some escaped to safety, for others, the way was blocked by fire and smoke. Many panicked patrons locked themselves up in the washroom of the restaurant to escape the blaze. Most of the victims, including 11 women, died due to suffocation.
