Just saw news about this terrible fire at Lemon Green Restaurant in Delhi's Malviya Nagar and it's just so devastating . Wednesday morning started with such a tragedy.
The numbers are just shocking,at least 20 people have died and so many others are injured . The Vice President C.P. Radhakrishnan also reacted,calling the situation "deeply distressing" on social media. And honestly,that feels like an understatement .
And it seems the emergency response was fast,with 10 fire tenders sent to building . They managed to rescue around 37 individuals and moved them to local hospitals,but reports say some are in critical condition.
This happened in a multi-storied building,which always makes these situations so much more dangerous and difficult for fire teams.
And tbh,the visuals are just gut-wrenching. There are reports that some people were so desperate they tried jumping from the upper floors to escape the flames . Can you even imagine that level of panic ah .
Delhi's Lieutenant Governor Taranjit Singh Sandhu also shared his condolences,saying “My thoughts and condolences are with the families of deceased,and I join all in praying for the swift recovery of those injured.” He assured that all rescue teams are on site .
Key points from situation rn:
- At least 20 lives lost in fire at Malviya Nagar restaurant.
- Officials confirmed around 37 people were rescued and hospitalized .
- L-G Sandhu has assured that immediate help will be provided to the victims and their families .
And rescue operations are still going on . They are searching whole structure to make sure no one else is trapped inside. The whole area must be in chaos.
It’s one of those incidents that just makes you feel helpless . You see news,you hear the numbers,and you just feel for all the families who lost someone this morning only.
Now the focus is on recovery and support for everyone affected by this horrible incident . But you just keep wondering if everyone has been found…
