Massive fire at Times Tower, no casualties

A massive fire broke out at the Times Tower in Kamala Mills compound in Lower Parel (W) around early morning on Friday. The fire was extinguished after a five-hour operation by the city fire brigade. No one was injured.

However, the incident has sparked concerns about fire safety in the Kamala Mills compound. In 2017 a major fire had taken place in the compound killing 14 people. Despite this, the fire brigade has not done a thorough fire audit of the massive commercial complex. There are allegations of illegal alterations and additions in several offices.
