We found many alterations in Andheri building: Fire department

MUMBAI: The occupation certification (OC) of Lotus Business Park will be cancelled on Monday and entry to it barred until all fire safety norms are complied with, the fire department said on Sunday.

"We crosschecked the approved floor-wise plan of the building and its existing status. We noticed many additions and alterations," said deputy fire officer S H Nesrikar. "We have instructed the ward office to immediately cancel the building's OC. It will not be restored unless the building follows the fire safety rules."

The 22-storey structure, whose top floors were gutted on Friday, was inspected on Sunday by officials from the fire department and BMC's building proposals department besides others. A few structural tests were also conducted during the visit. The cause of the fire is still unknown.

"We have not received a report from the fire department. But once we get it, we will take action as per the directives. Till the fire safety norms are adhered to, offices in the building will not be allowed to operate out of it," said Vishwas Shankarwar, assistant municipal commissioner (K-West ward).

Meanwhile, only four of the 19 firemen injured in the Friday blaze continue to be hospitalized. Cooper Hospital's medical superintendent Dr S S Gawde said 15 of the firemen did not have any serious injuries and were thus discharged. Four were shifted to the Airoli-based National Burns Centre (NBC) on Friday.

While all four are stable, one of them may need prolonged hospitalization. "He has facial burns and his ears got affected. Another had inhalation injuries, so we may observe him for a while. All of them have 5-8% burn wounds on hands, which is not very serious," said NBC director Dr Sunil Keswani. Two of them will be discharged early next week.
