According to Delhi fire chief Atul Garg, the factory did not have the requisite clearances and was operating without a Fire NOC. It had only one exit and no fire protection. It was overloaded with a lot of materials and there was no proper compartment, he said.

“In the morning we got some more remains. Seems like bodies of 2-3 people. The death toll might reach 30. The blaze spread rapidly due to plastic materials kept in the building.A meeting of 50 people was underway when the fire broke out, and as the door was closed they were trapped inside. Rescue work is over and we are winding it up,” a fire department official said.
