A fire at the Baby Care New Born hospital in Vivek Vihar, Delhi, resulted in the tragic deaths of eight newborns. The incident has revealed significant lapses in the hospital's safety protocols. CCTV footage shows that staffers made calls as soon as the fire started, but none were made to the police or fire services. Eyewitness testimonies and investigations disclosed that exits were blocked by medical equipment, exacerbating the situation. The hospital had an expired licence, a common issue among nursing homes in Delhi, with 28.74% operating under similar conditions. Following the incident, police seized all oxygen cylinders from the hospital due to storage guideline violations. Two doctors, Naveen Khichi and Akash, have been arrested and presented in Karkardooma court, where they were remanded to 14 days judicial custody. Additionally, an AAP Leader's OSD was arrested for negligence. AAP Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj has faced criticism for his response to the tragedy. Jitendra Singh Shunty was credited with alerting everyone and preventing further casualties.
