"Will examine report" says UP Dy CM Brajesh Pathak after getting report on Jhansi Medical College fire incident

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], November 27 (ANI): Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister (CM) Brajesh Pathak on Wednesday said that the report on the Jhansi Medical College fire incident was received and examination on the same would be carried out.
Speaking to ANI, Pathak said, "I have received the report and today we will examine it and notify about it.."
On November 15, a fire had occurred at the Maharani Laxmi Bai Medical College in Jhansi which took the lives of 10 infants.
The tragedy occurred when a fire, suspected to have been caused by a short circuit in an oxygen concentrator, spread rapidly in the highly oxygenated environment of the NICU, leading to the deaths of 10 newborns.
On November 19, amid the ongoing investigations on the fire, Kinjal Singh, Director General of the Medical Education and training in Uttar Pradesh, who was also leading the four member inquiry team investigating the reason for the fire said that the primary reason of the fire was a short circuit.
Kinjal Singh said, "We are going into more detail to probe what happened in the three rooms where fire broke out, including ICU and step-down, the location of exit doors. We are probing the extension boards which were installed belonged to which company and from where were they purchased."
On the opposition raising questions on Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), Pathak said that the opposition should stop raising questions on the constitutional bodies.
""The opposition should stop questioning constitutional bodies," he said.
Meanwhile, earlier on November 26, the Congress President Malikarjun Kharge had demanded the replacement of EVMs with ballot papers and alleged that the votes from "SC, ST, OBC and poor communities are being wasted."
The Congress Chief's scathing remarks come on the heels of his party's crushing defeat in the Maharashtra Assembly election, where the Mahayuti alliance swept to power in a landslide victory with the BJP emerging as the biggest winner with 132 seats out of 280 member Maharashtra assembly, while its allies--the Shiv Sena led by Eknath Shinde and the NCP led by Ajit Pawar--won 57 and 41 seats, respectively.
While the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) managed to secure only 46 seats, with the Congress getting just 16. (ANI)
