A major fire breaks out in the early hours of Friday in a residential building in Delhi’s Tughlakabad Extension, killing three people and injuring several others, according to reports from multiple outlets. The blaze engulfs a ground-floor parking area where vehicles are reported to be affected, and fire and smoke spread across the building’s lower floors. The Delhi Fire Service (DFS) responds after multiple emergency calls reporting a building fire and people trapped inside. DFS deploys water tenders and other firefighting equipment and carries out rescues from the smoke-filled structure in a narrow lane, where access is described as difficult. Fire officials state that preliminary information points to the fire originating in vehicles parked inside the property. By about the late morning period, DFS reports the fire is brought under control, and rescue operations continue even after containment. One additional person is rescued during the final phase, bringing the number of people rescued by DFS personnel to six in one account. Police and investigators also examine potential causes. One outlet reports CCTV footage of a masked woman entering the building shortly before the fire, prompting authorities to consider all angles, including whether there is any criminal involvement, although no direct link is confirmed. Victims are reported to belong to the same family.
