Summary:
A visit to the interior parts of the city, including Dal Bazaar, Meena Bazaar, Saban Bazaar, Kesar Ganj Mandi, Gur Mandi, Mali Ganj and Falahi Bazaar, revealed that there are no fire safety arrangements in most of these congested areas. President of Phalahi Bazaar Hosiery Association Pardeep Thapar said fire engines could hardly reach these narrow streets. “Look at the congested streets, not even small vehicles can move on here. New Madhopuri, Sunder Nagar and Vait Bazaar are the other areas where small units are operating in residential areas. He said recently, there were two fire incidents in congested areas where fire engines could not reach due to narrow streets..
