The heat is still on British Prime Minister Theresa May post the Grenfell Tower fire disaster, with victims' families asking hard questions about the blaze. While we cannot draw direct parallels between Grenfell and Mumbai, there are lessons for the city from North Kensington's tragedy.
All residential buildings in the city need to have fire fighting equipment installed in the premises. Today, sadly this is the exception rather than the rule. While this may not douse a fire completely, residents must have access to a stopgap measure, and this can certainly help save lives, till the professional firefighters arrive.
