Seven newborn babies died in a fire at a neonatal clinic in New Delhi. The two-story building was left with a burned facade, a charred spiral staircase, and oxygen cylinders covered in soot.

In Rajkot, a trampoline and bowling amusement park caught fire, resulting in at least 27 deaths, including many children. India struggles with poor building safety compliance, inadequate fire services, and insufficient government follow-up after disasters.
