At least 32 people have died in a fire in the Indian capital New Delhi, police say
Almost 60 people were evacuated from a five-story non-residential building after the fire broke out, said police spokesman Anil Kumar. The injured were transported to local hospitals. "The problem was the smoke -- all the windows and doors were shut and there was dense smoke inside," said Sunil Choudhary, deputy chief fire officer. "No one could get out. There was an iron door and it was locked and people were brought out only after we broke the door open.
— Narendra Modi December 8, 2019 Read MoreOn Twitter, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the fire was"extremely horrific." "My thoughts are with those who lost their loved ones," Modi said."Wishing the injured a quick recovery. Authorities are providing all possible assistance at the site of the tragedy."
