India - Rajkot fire claimed 27 lives

According to Indian media reports, children are also among the dead. The fire was so intense that the bodies were completely burnt.

Police say that the owner of the gaming zone has been detained and an investigation has been started.

Preliminary investigations have revealed that the gaming zone management did not make necessary arrangements for clearance in case of fire.

In the Indian state of Gujarat, a gaming zone suffered a fire that brought about 27 deaths and several injuries.

The owner of the gaming area has been taken into custody by the police, who have started an investigation.

The initial investigations have found that the gaming zone administration failed to take the appropriate measures for fire control.

Early on a Sunday morning, Gujarat Home Minister Harsh Sanghvi visited the site of the tragic gaming zone fire and reported one person went missing.

The authorities have been instructed by Chief Minister Bhupinder Patel to focus on the injured people's care promptly.

The Rajkot administrators did not immediately provide any other details about the victims.
