Gujarat HC slams state govt over Rajkot game zone fire
Officials inspect the site of a fire accident on the following day of the disaster, at an amusement park facility in Rajkot, in India's Gujarat state on May 26, 2024. Four young children were among 27 people killed when a fire in India ripped through a crowded amusement park, police said, as rescuers on May 26 scoured the site the morning after the blaze.

Gujarat High Court on Monday rapped the state government over the massive fire at a gaming zone in Rajkot, which killed 28 persons.

“Were you asleep? We don’t trust government anymore,” the court said, according to India Today.

The fire at the TRP game zone in the Nana-Mava locality of Rajkot on Saturday evening killed 28 persons, including children.

According to the police, that the blaze might have started due to welding work in the gaming zone.

The Rajkot Police has registered a first information report (FIR) against six partners of the game zone on charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder. Two of them have been arrested, while the others remain absconding.
