Fire at the hotel

The Delhi govt has ordered a magisterial probe into massive fire at a hotel in Delhi, and action should be taken against those found guilty so that no lapses from any hotel authorities should be repeated in the future. It is reliably learnt that guests were unable to use corridors to escape because of wooden panelling. Also, the hotel did not have proper fire escapes and the emergency exit door was locked. Sadly, one of the deceased from Kerala was my friend.
