The authorities seem to have fallen short of learning their lesson from the massive fire, which broke out at Make in India week’s Maharashtra Night on Girgaum Chowpatty earlier this week. While the fire safety arrangements at the Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) have been increased, some of the fire extinguishers kept outside the exhibition halls do not mention manufacturing, refilling or expiry dates, important for determining their utility.
While this cylinder mentions the manufacturing and refilling date, mid-day observed that the same was not mentioned on more than 15 cylinders. Pics/Sayyed Sameer Abedi
