At least 21 people were killed when a fire broke out at a residential hotel in Delhi’s Malviya Nagar on Monday morning. The blaze started around 8:50 a.m. local time in the basement restaurant of the five-story building. Authorities believe about 40 people were inside the hotel at the time, including foreign nationals visiting India for medical treatment. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.
Video footage showed some guests jumping from the building to escape the flames. Most of the hotel’s 25 rooms were occupied, and many guests were reportedly asleep when the fire began. Rescue operations were launched as emergency services responded to the scene.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed condolences to the victims’ families and announced financial assistance of 200,000 rupees for each family of the deceased and 50,000 rupees for the injured. Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta said she was deeply saddened by the loss of lives.
