At least eight people were killed and four others injured after a massive fire broke out in a residential building in Delhi’s Vivek Vihar area, reportedly triggered by an air-conditioner blast. The blaze spread rapidly through the structure, trapping occupants inside. Fire services rushed to the spot and carried out rescue operations, while the injured were taken to nearby hospitals. Preliminary reports suggest an electrical fault or AC explosion as the likely cause, though investigations are ongoing. The incident highlights recurring concerns over fire safety and faulty electrical appliances in densely populated urban areas.
