20 killed in massive fire at gaming zone in gujrat

Introduction

A massive fire at the TRP Gamezone in Rajkot, Gujarat, has resulted in the tragic deaths of at least 24 people, including many children. The fire, which broke out on Saturday, was reportedly caused by an explosion in the air conditioning unit, which then spread rapidly due to a short circuit. The blaze sent thick smoke billowing across the area, complicating rescue efforts. Local fire departments and multiple fire engines were deployed to control the fire and rescue those trapped inside【5†source】【6†source】.

The Chief Minister of Gujarat, Bhupendra Patel, has directed the administration to prioritize rescue operations and the treatment of the injured. In response to this incident, the government has ordered all gaming zones in the state to shut down temporarily for fire safety inspections【5†source】【6†source】.
