Mall Fire Reveals Fire Safety Lapses; Probe Launched in Mumbai

Mall Fire Reveals Fire Safety Lapses; Probe Launched in Mumbai

Imagine a big shopping mall had a fire.

The fire started in the basement.

When firefighters checked the mall, they found that the fire safety system wasn't working properly.

It was supposed to be automatic, but it was manual, like someone had to flip a switch.

This made it hard to stop the fire quickly.

The people in charge are now checking why the system didn't work and if the fire department took too long to help.

They are also checking the building's structure to see if it's still safe.

If the rules weren't followed, the mall or others involved might face fines or even jail time.
