Many would have survived even if they had jumped from the fire: eyewitnesses

During the fire at the Kacchi Bhai restaurant on Bailey Road in the capital, many people went to the roof because there was fire at the base of the stairs and they could not get down in the elevator. Some took refuge in the bathroom to save their lives. Most of the bodies were recovered from the bathroom after the fire was extinguished. An eyewitness said that many people might have survived if they had jumped from the two-story Kachi Bhai before the fire spread. Suman, a private driver among the eyewitnesses, said that it took some time for the fire to spread from the ground floor to the second floor. However, many people might have survived if they had jumped from the two-story Kachi Bhai before the fire spread. But some were saying not to jump. Many people were asking to go to the bathroom next door.

Later, many took a position toward the bathroom. Many went to school. The fire spread from the second floor to the sixth floor in no time.

Suman also said that, after extinguishing the fire, I saw that most of the bodies were taken out of the bathroom.

However, if the fire service had controlled the fire from the ground floor, the major accident would not have happened. Because the fire spread to the second floor after 20 minutes from the ground floor,.

It is to be noted that there was a 20 percent discount at Kacchi Bhai Restaurant on the occasion of Leap Year on Thursday (February 29). As a result, a large number of people go to the restaurant. The fire service received the news of a fire in the Kacchi Bhai restaurant building around 9:50 p.m. yesterday.

At least 46 people have died. Out of the 46 dead, 35 bodies have been handed over to their families. The restaurant was full of customers when the fire broke out.
