Four kids admitted in the government-run Kamala Nehru Children's Hospital in Bhopal died in a fire that broke out on Monday night. The blaze started in a ward on the third-floor of the hospital, which houses the ICU, an official said.
A high-level probe into the incident has been ordered. The probe will be conducted by additional chief secretary (ACS) health and medical education, Mohammad Suleiman, he said in another tweet.
The fire broke out at around 9 pm and 8 to 10 fire tenders were rushed to the spot to douse the flames, said Fatehgarh Fire Station in-charge Juber Khan.
Khan said a short-circuit may have caused the blaze.
Family members of children admitted in the hospital gathered outside the medical facility after the news of the fire spread.
Surplus rainwater gushed out of reservoirs while several roads resembled swollen rivers and four persons were killed in rain related incidents in Tamil Nadu and over 60 houses suffered damage, authorities said on Monday, as the alert was sounded to people living in low-lying areas in parts of the State.
The Poondi, Cholavaram, Puzhal, Chembarmbakkam, and Thervai Kandigai reservoirs here and Veeranam lake, about 230 kilometres from here released surplus water, which was cumulatively a little over 10,000 cusecs of water, as showers continued in catchment areas.
The Mettur reservoir in Salem district is expected to touch its full level of 120 feet soon and the discharge of surplus water is expected on Tuesday. People have been alerted and local authorities advised to move residents of low-lying areas to safer locations.
With the catchment areas of the Cauvery river in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka receiving heavy rains, the inflow of water to the dam was over 27,000 cusecs, almost touching 118 feet, official sources said.
Coimbatore district administration also sounded an alert to people living along banks of the Noyyal river in view of continuing rains.
