Vadodara (Gujarat) [India], May 26 (ANI): Following the Rajkot fire incident which claimed the lives of 30 people the previous day, the fire brigade team on Sunday conducted a surprise inspection and found that an adventure park in Vadodara did not have fire department no-objection certificate. The authorities disconnected the electricity and water connections of the adventure park.
The adventure park was running without a fire alarm. There were no fire extinguishing measures in place.
“Action was initiated and the electricity and water connection of this adventure park was disconnected when it was found that there was no fire NOC,” said Fire Officer Nikunj Azad.
Earlier in the day, all gaming zones in Vadodara were temporarily closed.
“After yesterday’s fire incident in Rajkot, all 8-9 game zones in Vadodara were inspected. 15 days back we inspected the game zones and asked them to fulfil the compliances. Yesterday night experts from different departments like the mechanical department, electrical department, and civil department came to investigate. Those gaming zones that seemed unsafe were asked to take requisite steps to ensure their safety. All game zones in Vadodara were safe earlier and now further safety has been ensured,” Chief Fire Officer Parth Brahmbhatt said speaking to ANI on Sunday.
Notably, a massive fire broke out at a gaming zone in Gujarat’s Rajkot city on May 25 evening resulting in the loss of lives including children.
Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel along with Home Minister Harsh Sanghavi inspected the Rajkot TRP gaming zone on Sunday. The duo also met the injured at Rajkot’s Giriraj Hospital.
Earlier, Gujarat Home Minister Harsh Sanghvi took stock of the area where the massive fire broke out.
“Our priority is that…as per the information we have, one person is still missing and it is our responsibility to look for the person. We are deploying maximum teams for that…,” Sanghvi told reporters. (ANI)
