Lucknow: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP and UP in charge Sanjay Singh visited victims of the Aliganj fire at KGMU on Tuesday.After interacting with the injured and their families, Singh said that the SIT constituted by the govt to investigate the cause of the fire was a means to cover up and shield the actual persons guilty for the incident.“The order to demolish the building where the fire broke out had been issued in 2016.
Out of the last 10 years, Yogi Adityanath ji’s govt has been in power for nine and a half.
How then did this illegal and dilapidated building remain standing? Under whose patronage was it being run?” Singh asked, demanding that a high-level investigation be carried out into this detail.The MP also expressed concern over the condition of the fire department, saying that even when people called the fire brigade, no vehicle arrived on time.“I would like the CM to order a review of the entire fire department of Uttar Pradesh, increase its budget and provide firefighters with modern equipment, pipes and vehicles.
Instead of formalities like suspension of guilty officials, FIRs should be registered directly against them and they should be sent to jail,” Singh said.
He also demanded that families of the deceased and the injured should receive much more compensation than Rs 5 lakh and Rs 2 lakh respectively, announced by the govt.You Can Also Check: Gold Rate in Lucknow | Silver Rate in Lucknow | Bank Holidays in Lucknow | Public Holidays in Lucknow | Lucknow AQI | Weather in Lucknow | Petrol Price in Lucknow | Diesel Price in Lucknow | CNG Price in Lucknow | LPG Price in LucknowStay updated with the latest Lucknow news.
