CM Kiran orders inquiry into fire at Manikonda

Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy on Monday directed the State Disaster Response and Fire Services Department to conduct a detailed enquiry into the fire which claimed five lives, including that of a new-born baby, at Manikonda in Hyderabad.

The Chief Minister spoke to the Home Minister Sabita Reddy who visited the spot and got details about the last night’s incident.
As reports indicated that the apartment complex and the adjacent godown did not have requisite permissions from the municipal department and the fire tenders could not reach the spot in time, the Chief Minister ordered an inquiry, according to press release from the CMO.
Asking the authorities to initiate action against those responsible, Kiran Kumar also extended sympathies to the bereaved families.
Ranga Reddy district Collector A Vani Prasad and Cyberabad Police Commissioner Dwaraka Tirumala Rao visited the spot and supervised relief operation.
