Investigators are expected to examine wiring systems, appliances, and safety compliance measures inside the affected apartment as part of the probe.

The incident comes close on the heels of the devastating Malviya Nagar restaurant fire in Delhi, where multiple casualties were reported after a massive blaze trapped people inside a building.

The back-to-back incidents have once again raised concerns about fire safety preparedness in densely populated urban areas across Delhi-NCR, especially in high-rise residential and commercial structures.
