A fire at Flourish Stay, a six-storey guesthouse in the Hauz Rani neighbourhood of South Delhi, has killed at least 21 people after it broke out on June 3. Firefighters pulled 49 people from the building, which lacked emergency exits, had locked rooftop doors, and was fitted with electrically powered doors that became inoperable during the blaze — trapping occupants inside. The disaster has drawn attention to widespread safety violations in Delhi's hospitality sector, as the property was licensed only as a bed-and-breakfast but was being operated as a full hotel.
