A devastating fire broke out in the intensive care unit of a government hospital in eastern India, resulting in the loss of ten lives. The victims were all patients, while eleven hospital staff members suffered burns during the rescue efforts. The blaze, suspected to be caused by an electrical short circuit, was eventually brought under control, and the injured staff members are receiving treatment. The incident has sparked a judicial inquiry, with the state government promising financial compensation to the families of the victims and vowing to take strict action against those responsible. The hospital, one of the largest government-run medical facilities in the region, has relocated patients to other departments to ensure their safety.
